Informationen zum Autor VINCE GOTERA is an assistant professor of English at Humboldt State University. He has published poems in the Kenyon Review , Ploughshares , Caliban , and Amerasla and serves as the Vietnam Area Chair of the Popular Culture Association.

The book blends sociohistorical commentary with close readings of individual works by such poets as Michael Casey, Walter McDonald, and W. D. Ehrhart.
