Summary:

Advance praise for God I Feel Modern Tonight --

"Cat's poetry is the perfect manifestation of her singular persona. It's outrageously funny, bold, unafraid, absurd, unadorned, and somehow consistently profound. I belly-laughed involuntarily throughout, was repeatedly moved, and mostly marveled at her deliriously unique voice."---Ben Platti --

"This book is a party & at the party you meet somebody who is hilarious & charming (but also hot & smart!) & the reason you're together is because you're both a little sad in a modern way. plus the outlet is there & your phones are both at 12 percent. After reading this I wrote seven million things I've always been meaning to but hadn't yet because I felt I didn't have permission & that is what these poems gave me: permission to be the freaky little bitch I've always been, searching endlessly for something more."---Melissa Lozada-Oliva, author of Pelnda --

"Does anyone chronicle and lampoon millennial ennui as hilariously, as vulnerably, and as bitingly as Cat Cohen? NFW TBH. I'm a stan!"---Man Cumming. author of Not My Father's Son --Book Jacket.
