In poems that range from the Cold War anxieties of the 1950s to the perils and predicaments of an aging Boomer in a post-9/11 world, Bilgere’s rueful humor and slippery syntax become a trapdoor that at any moment can plunge the reader into the abyss. In Bilgere’s world a yo-yo morphs into an emblem for the atomic bomb. A spot of cancer flames into the Vietnam War. And the death of a baseball player reminds us, in this age of disbelief, of the importance—the necessity—of myth.Country/Region of Manufacture: USGenre: Poetry & DramaBook Series: Pitt Poetry SeriesRelease Year: 2014 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
