Nevada in Our Teeth Crossing Highway 50

A collaboration between Jennifer Battisti & Andrew Romanelli, Nevada in Our Teeth Crossing Highway 50 contains 17 poems in a travel ready size of 4.25X6.86 with 56 pages, 5 of them being lined so you can write down your own thoughts and explorations.

Here is an excerpt from the introduction:
In July of 1986, Life Magazine gave Highway 50 the moniker “The Loneliest Road in America”. The article claimed that the 287 mile stretch between Fernley and Great Basin offered no attractions or points of interest, had little services along the way, and advised travelers to possess “survival skills”. Nevada embraced the idea and developed a Survival Guide complete with its own passport to be stamped at stops along the way. As Las Vegas born poets, we were curious about this idea of loneliness. How have our perceptions of loneliness changed since 1986? Who decides a point of interest? Could the landscape alone offer enough of an attraction to make the dangerous trek worth it?
