We're Dancing like Planets Now


Book Description

M. Tyler Esplin's (1991-2018) work epitomizes the poetry and aesthetic of America's Mountain West counterculture in the early 21st century. From drug use to friendship and tender romance, from nihilistic depression to numbing stints in jail, Esplin's genius gives voice to an overlooked and underappreciated subculture of rebellion, recklessness, and obscurity.
