Book Description
C.A. Lindsay's eleventh book contains a bold, humorous, and defiant poetic hurricane blast against the weakness and hypocrisy of today's lobbyist-controlled, mass-media-befuddled, socially-networked culture. No corner of the America political and social scene is left neglected. These include the unvarnished truth regarding the economic massacre of the United States middle class, contrived water shortages, oppressive restrictions on free enterprise and hiring, and constant manipulated crises used as excuses to crush individual freedom - and fund ever-growing monstrous bureaucracies. Neither is the American dilapidated public school system, which squashes individuality and initiative while rendering US children incapable of functioning in society, left alone to wallow in its overpriced bloated bureaucracy as Lindsay hurls her poetic missiles.

Made in Detroit
Author: Marge Piercy
Publisher: Knopf
ISBN: 0804173206
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 193
Book Description
Now in paperback, a collection to treasure from one of our most popular poets: poems that range from the Detroit of her childhood to her current life on Cape Cod, from deep appreciations of the natural world to elegies for lost friends and fellow poets. In her trademark style combining the sublime with gritty reality, Marge Piercy describes the night she was born: "the sky burned red / over Detroit and sirens sharpened their knives. / The elms made tents of solace over grimy / streets and alley cats purred me to sleep." She writes in graphic, unflinching language about the poor, banished now by politicians, no longer "real people like corporations." There are elegies for her peer group of poets, gone now, whose work she cherishes but from whom she cannot help but want more. There are laments for the suicide of dolphins and for her beloved cats, as she remembers "exactly how I loved each." She continues to celebrate Jewish holidays in compellingly original ways, and sings the praises of her marriage and the small pleasures of life. A stunning collection in the best Piercy tradition.
