Phantom Captain explores the poetry of psychoanalysis, feminism and gender, questions of the 21st century self, and the accelerating pressures of standardizing capitalism upon the human mind.Kim Rosenfield places the inter-reflecting paradoxes of the psychoanalytic endeavor in full-frontal view, without sugar-coating and without filters, inviting readers to participate in deep-diving investigations. Psychic provocations are laid bare while being surrounded by the honest warmth in Rosenfield's voice. Rosenfield's poems are simultaneously mature, fresh, and energetic, breaking through persistent American binaries, courageously aware of what binds, holds back, and oppresses the mind. In six irregular and ambitious sections with unpredictable laugh-out-loud moments, Rosenfield offers curious readers a way to go under and out of all that dominates us.
