More About This Title Dopamine Blunder
English
In her astounding third collection, poet Lori Cayer takes on the juggernaut role of steward of human nature and subsequently explodes the myth of happiness through a multi-faceted lens of anthropology, socio-biology, sociology, psychology, archaeology, medicine and philosophy. Hinging on erasure and found material, Dopamine Blunder investigates these fundamental questions as our millennium enfolds with equal uncertainty and trepidation.

English
"Cayer looks at what it means to emote, to feel, and to strive to recreate those moments of happiness . . . a complex collection that requires rumination and exploration beyond the page into the self and the world around us." —Serena Augusto-Cox, savvyverseandwit.com"One of the tropes of this collection is ‘If you want to be happy, be' . . . Compositions move from last line to first . . . The poet is subversive throughout." —Anne Burke, poets.ca
