In this powerful collection, Bagoo aexamines the varied dynamics of the body and mind with the narcissism of the soul, while fully embracing the work of art as a critical reflection on the human condition.

Editorial Reviews
Review
Beautiful, angry, redolent with transporting detail and memory. Bagoo's work makes yearning, nostalgia, love, even disappointment sing off the page with a painterly, intertextual sensibility very much his own: 'the thing that breaks you is all there is'. I love this collection.
- Luke Kennard, Notes on the Sonnets
In Andre Bagoo's newest collection, Narcissus, the lyric dances beautifully between the twin flames of violence and desire. Elegant in its brutality, in its mastery of line and of longing. This book is formally dexterous and queers mythology in order to excavate inheritance and rename the present.
