Bøger af Dorothy Barresi

A book of contemporary poetry exploring the fine, shifting line between faith-secular and spiritual faith-and fanaticism in an insecure age, American Fanatics is a lyrical, pop-culture inflected meditation on democracy, morality, beauty, commerce, and the cost of falling dreams.

Since its inception in 1967, the ""Pitt Poetry Series"" has been a vehicle for America's finest contemporary poets including Poet Laureate Billy Collins, Toi Derricotte, Denise Duhamel, Lynn Emanuel, Bob Hicok, and, Poet Laureate and Pulitzer Prize winner Ted Kooser. This work is a collection of the best work from this series.

Barresi's poems take the world's brutal vitality as their music, and they refuse to despair.
