A sad and scary book of punk rock villanelles and sonnets about delinquency. Set in Anyvalley, North America, the book centres around the experiences of young people growing up in the suburbs. The contrast of elegant poetic forms with the colloquial, often harsh language of suburban teens makes for a compelling and engaging achievement. Bachinsky creates a gothic landscape that will be familiar to anyone whos visited the suburbs. Here, young Brownies dance, learn to sew and get badges in a series of eerie rituals, and small-town girls settle down early. Murder, lust, teen pregnancy and a young mans disappearance are all discussed with a matter-of-fact, dispassionate voice. But this world is not without humour and hope. 'Home of Sudden Service' concludes with 'Drive', a series of fifteen sonnets about the poets trip across Canada with her sister -- and out of the setting of their youth.
