A debut collection of poems by J. Bruce Fuller, that investigates how boyhood and fatherhood entwine to create cycles that mimic decaying and dangerous natural surroundings.

How to Drown a Boy, a debut collection of poems by J. Bruce Fuller, investigates how boyhood and fatherhood entwine to create cycles that mimic decaying and dangerous natural surroundings. The woods, the water, the oil rigs, and the men who work them all have a powerful effect on the speaker from childhood through adulthood. These poems examine the weight of family and culture against a backdrop of climate change and environmental disaster.

J. Bruce Fuller's poems have appeared in the Southern Review and Best New Poets 2022, among other publications. He has received scholarships from Bread Loaf, Sewanee, and Stanford University, where he served as a Wallace Stegner Fellow. He teaches at Sam Houston State University and is the director of Texas Review Press.
