Selected Losses

Jon Paul Fiorentino’s Selected Losses is an irreverent and energetic exercise in the poetic language of loserdom. Filled with sharp, witty turns of phrase and satirical invocations of canonical losers such as Jerry Lewis and Earle Nelson, thischapbook is an important new addition to the world of outsider culture.
