Poetry. "Nin Andrews' DEAR PROFESSOR, DO YOU LIVE IN A VACUUM? is a pioneer in epistolary poetry. With hilariously sublime results, her poems take the form of befuddled e-mails from struggling students to their physics professor. While Nin Andrews uses the line break the way comics use the punch line, the poems are also profound in their insights regarding power, male/female relationships, and spirituality. Nin Andrews has an insatiable, tender, and wry imagination"--Denise Duhamel.
