Beskrivelse
Complex and subtle, this new collection ofpoetry takes its inspiration from the author's experience teaching poetry in prison. Theeffect of their severe, restrictivesurroundings surfaces in the somber and sometimes violent verses that delve into the emotional lives of the offenders and their victims. In spite of thesolemn subject matter, there is still humor and an adroit irony in the lines, reflecting the humanity of the prisoners and the light that can still be found in a dark place. Additionally, the book includes the poet's paean to his bad back, several pieces inspired by an outbreak of foot-and-mouth disease, and a long work about a Soviet serial murderer."
