Alice in Greenpoint (Finishing Line Press, 2015) by Iva Ticic is a debut worthy of much praise. Ticic creates a landscape where the speaker is trying to find a home in a new world, so to speak, most notably in the ever-changing, strangely artificial world of Brooklyn, in America, in a land of shiny and new things. How this world appears to an outsider is fascinating, and documented poignantly in these poems.
