Political Punch Fox Frazier-Foley

How does the influx of identities, voices, and life experiences that are now expressed in mainstream American letters potentially create and communicate new political vision(s) -- vision that may sound or appear different from Ginsberg's poetic/political tour de force, but is no less necessary, compelling, challenging, or iconoclastic? What do we even mean when we talk about the weight of a political work? How is that weight both carried and expressed by poetry today? Political Punch: Contemporary Poems on the Politics of Identity showcases the substantial amount of political writing that is being done today.--Publisher.
