Uncollected Poems: 2012-2021 gathers a decade of work previously unreleased or issued in limited private editions.

Sacred and profane, anguished and arch, and above all else achingly chic—Jon Leon’s poetry helped to make me serious about glamour as a subject. A Frederick Seidel for the so-called indie sleaze revival.

—Philippa Snow, author of Trophy Lives

These beautiful pieces emerged from a decade wracked by the explosion of social media, the spread of right-wing populism, and a tech culture set on burying the old ways—novels, albums, movies, subcultures—a whirlwind which these poems both mourn and celebrate, in an affecting synthesis of the sacred and the profane.

—Seth Price, author of F*ck Seth Price
