Inspired by classic Motown and the Midwest's rich history of social poetics, Andrew Collard's poetry collection asks readers to trust their bodies and the experience of human connection in a society that alienates us from our handiwork and from each other. These poems posit the human frame as a site of refuge amid increasing automation, along with the tangible and the vintage. Lo-Fi Citadels is a love song sung among grocery stores, bus stops, malls, and vacant lots to remind us what we're made of.
