Dimitrov is a vital new energy in American poetry.Los Angeles Review of BooksTruthtelling, raw, fierce with feeling.Brenda ShaughnessyDimitrov can sound at once hip and naive, devoted to the sincerities that other sorts of poets reject or obscure.Publishers WeeklyTogether and by Ourselves, Alex Dimitrovs second book of poems, takes on broad existential questions and the reality of our current moment: being seemingly connected to one another, yet emotionally alone. Through a collage aesthetic and a multiplicity of voices, these poems take us from coast to coast, New York to LA, and toward uneasy questions about intimacy, love, death, and the human spirit. Dimitrov critiques Americas longlasting obsessions with money, celebrity, and escapismwhether in our personal, professional, or family lives. What defines a life? Is love ever enough? Who are we when together and who are we by ourselves? These questions echo throughout the poems, which resist easy answers. The voice is both heartfelt and skeptical, bruised yet playful, and always deeply introspective.from 'Water'What is aging exactly?There are new jobs and peopleand someone dies before noon every day.I am swimming and swimming?in May or an ocean,I dont see the reason. But thats unimportant, you said.Just keep doing it over again until one day you cant.Spring excites us and we know what it is every time.The minutes in meetings are lifes most undistinguished;thats obvious. And whats obvious makes us all foolsthen fast friends.Alex Dimitrov is the author of Together and by Ourselves (Copper Canyon Press, 2017), Begging for It (Four Way Books, 2013), and the online chapbook American Boys (Floating Wolf Quarterly, 2012).
