Hunger Anthem - Joseph Helminski - Bog

"Helminski's work is witty and incisive as he examines the inanities of contemporary life. His sensibilities veer toward the ironic, but his is an unendorsed irony that leaves plenty of room for tenderness. Hyper-aware of the ways we've imperiled life on our planet, Hunger Anthem asks the reader to wonder at our folly and question whether we can still save ourselves from it. Swiftian in places, yet channeling the insistence of environmentalist poets like WS Merwin and Mary Oliver, this little book is both rigorous and whimsical."-John Freeman, author of Brother of Leaving and Fight Songs
"Hunger Anthem is a book you'll want to read by a poet you'll want to watch."-Bill Yarrow, author of Blasphemer and The Vig of Love.
