Bad-Badtz Maru
by Quintessa Matranga

Bad Badtz-Maru is a collection of poems written by Quintessa Matranga. The writing drifts between short observations, diaristic recording and catches on the friction of language—often in the same sentence. We recommend this book to those who love painting and phone numbers. Quintessa Matranga is both an artist working in many mediums and, until April 2015, the curator at Mission Comics, a gallery operating in the back room of a comic book shop in San Francisco. She received her BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute in 2013
