Synopsis

The follow-up to his award-winning chapbook True If Destroyed from Finishing Line Press (2016), True If Not Destroyed is a snapshot of the American experience in the first quarter of the 21st century, examined through the author's own observations and desires. Gage's pursuit of the truth in a commercial media landscape rife with falsehoods is further challenged by revelations that our culture has often been sabotaged by its own leaders. Balanced by personal poems that mine themes of love and lust, family and parenting, True If Not Destroyed is the hope of one American to help forge a better future for our country while celebrating all aspects of its past.
