The Rink

The Rink is a chapbook that looks at three different anxieties: the potential for nuclear war, life as working-class, and starting a new family. Aaron Kent merges these three ideas into poetry that is layered over various found pieces of paper, including his dissertation cover sheet, old drafts of poems, snippets from a Pat Arrowsmith poetry book, a sketch of a crab Aaron found once, and things he drew with his eyes closed.
