Inspired by Lanford Wilson's play Talley's Folly, Jeremy Radin's Dear Sal is a series of epistolary meditations on loneliness, longing, the Jewish diaspora, bewilderment, divinity, and love. Radin's second collection lays bare a life lived in romantic exile, using the play's events-one year after a brief but passionate affair, a man returns to a deserted boathouse on his beloved's family property in order to offer himself to her-as the foundation for a mystifying interior stage, populated by a cast of eccentrics, upon which a man must wrestle, each moment, with his own unremitting desire.

Jeremy Radin was born in southern California's San Fernando Valley, where he began performing in musicals at thirteen years old because he had a lot of energy and Ritalin wasn't working. Since then, he's appeared in several television shows (It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, CSI, The Office, ER), movies (The New World, Wrestlemaniac, Nesting), and plays. He has studied for ten years and teaches at The Beverly Hills Playhouse. As a poet, he's been published (or is forthcoming) in various journals including Union Station, Nailed, Sundog Lit, Souvenir, PEN Center's The Rattling Wall, and Freezeray. He's toured the U.S. with his debut book Slow Dance with Sasquatch (Write Bloody Publishing, 2012) where you may have caught a glimpse of him sitting in a restaurant, aggressively eating pancakes by himself. His most recent collection, Dear Sal is with NOT A CULT.

Reviews for Dear Sal

Dear Sal is a thick braid of joy, despair, Judaica, dragon teeth, familial history, & desire. --sam sax, author of Madness
