Popular Fiction  prints the important poems of Sherry’ s mid-career affair with genre writing, enjambment of multiple texts and cultures. As the review by Bernard Welt says, “ … it is ultimately not the structure that matters in Sherry’ s book so much as what happens when that structure passes through the mind of the reader: how an opinion is formed in the case, how a worldview is built, how words get under the skin.” In this full-length collection comprised of 17 poems ending with “ Plus Thirteen,” Sherry expands the contemporary formulations of minimalism as he begins his extended poetic exploration of environmental diversity.
