From the Author:
This book attempts to present a sensibility frequently found among the American people but seldom exported by the country’s blockbuster-driven "cultural industries" of film, television and mass-market fiction. Without national triumphalism or self-loathing, these poems try to address the way individuals face the limits of their own capabilities and the larger limits of historical circumstance; these poems also look for an awareness of imperfection and injustice that does not turn to bitterness, fanaticism or fatalism. I hope readers in the United Kingdom and on the Continent will find pleasure and insight in this work.
