René Ricard: God with Revolver
The collection of poems by American artist Rene Ricard, written between 1979 and 1982.
‘God with Revolver’ is the re-issue of Rene Ricard’s second volume of poetry, originally published in 1989 as part of the Hanuman Books series. Dedicated to the dramatic experience of heartbreak, this collection assembled from poems composed over several years, seems to be written in a single breath. With its raw sincerity and wit, ‘God with Revolver’ is a vibrant testament to 1980s New York that still speaks to its readers in all its intensity, poignancy, and emotional vulnerability.
