    Description of Someone Took They Tongues

    Poetry. Music. "Kearney’s collection of opera libretti explodes with verbal inge-nuity, graphically lunging out at us like Marvel Comics sound effects meets Italo-Futurist cut-up. Stuck in a domestic cell or a tenement, his characters bust out in song that riddles and rages and confounds. Kearney is our generation’s lyric and sonic pugilist."—Cathy Park Hong
