Title: The Old Current Author: Brad Leithauser Narrator: Brad Leithauser Format: mp3 Length: 59 mins Release date: 03-04-25 Ratings: 5 out of 5 stars, 1 rating Genres: Themes & Styles Publisher's Summary: As snappy as a dinner jacket’s red silk lining, as appealing as a piano interlude in jazz, Brad Leithauser’s robust felicity is a balm in grim times. It’s also the perfect vehicle for nostalgia, regret, and surprise, forces that animate his first collection in more than a decade. By turns laugh-out-loud funny and deeply thoughtful, this collection balances wisdom and practicality, as with deft care Leithauser easily, often unexpectedly, juggles off-rhymes and old forms and new. The book unfolds like a five-act play, moving from chattier poems to dramatic denouements.
