Description
Poetry. Recipient of the 2000 Beatrice Hawley Award. Lyrical yet political, fragmented yet inclusive, energetically improvisational yet elegantly shaped...UTOPIC resists conventional classifications. This collection of poetry asks readers to engage in a poignant examination of the boundaries of the poetic, an examination where the implications far exceed questions of aesthetics. In fact, the book's refusal of easy categorization echoes Martin Luther King's imperative that we act as a beloved community by rejecting harmful inherited ideas and instead embracing the disenfranchised, the outsider, the new.
