Paperback. Condición: Good. In her groundbreaking and most politicized collection, Kathleen Ossip takes a hard look at the U.S.A. as it now stands.

There are poems based on bumper stickers, the names of churches, little shops. Traveling tests her beliefs, and Ossip fully discloses her doubts and confusions. Ossip is an unconventional, mighty magician with words.…

Panoramic in time and space, Lives knows each of us, our ordinary lives and our occupancy within history and the universe, our yearning for connection: ?And if I turned to you now, my one wet muscle run dry, would you / turn to me?
