"Visceral and urgent, Lowell Jameson's Through the Realm of the Vacant Prince is a brilliant collection about loss, grief, and embodiment. In each section of the collection, the forms morph as the reader follows the speaker's layered narrative. Images arrive vivid and immediate, always drawing the reader into Jameson's fresh and haunting realms. This book pulls the meat off of language and leaves nothing but the bones."
-Robin Gow, Author of Dear Mothman

Each piece leads the reader through a medley of topics, including pregnancy, parenthood, identity, and romance. As each poem ties to the next, creating a picture of a life with vulnerability, Jameson begs us to ask the question:
What does a prince have to endure to earn his crown?
