Ecstasy is Alex Dimitrov’s fourth book of poems. Indulgent. Anti-cancel culture. Pro-pleasure. Anti-authority. Flirty. Sexy. Crazy. Ecstasy is an in your face display of Big Dick Energy at a repressive time in American culture. More than that, these poems are a celebration of the human spirit & staunch defenders of freedom. Written in New York, Miami, & Paris, & firmly placing the poem within those cities, Ecstasy includes a series on the 7 deadline sins, luxury cars, & the days of the week (a follow up to Love & Other Poems’ months of the year). Subversive yet heartfelt, the book concludes with the sprawling, epic poem, “Tripping in the USA.”
