In the everyday tally of \"the good against the violence\" the speaker asks, \"why can't the line around the block on the free night\/ at the museum stand for everything, why can't the shriek \/of the girls in summer waves . . . \/ be the call and response of all people living on the earth?\" A descendant of the New York school and the second wave, Greenbaum \"spills\" details that she simultaneously replaces-through the spiraling revelations only poems with an authentic life-force of humanism can nurture.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jessica Greenbaum\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Pittsburgh Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/16\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 80\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.30lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.80h x 5.80w x 0.30d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780822965725\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJessica Greenbaum \u003c\/b\u003eis the author of \u003ci\u003eInventing Difficulty\u003c\/i\u003e, winner of the Gerald Cable Prize, and \u003ci\u003eThe Two Yvonnes, \u003c\/i\u003echosen by Paul Muldoon for the Princeton Series of Contemporary Poets.
