Description

In Unincorporated Persons in the Late Honda Dynasty, Tony Hoagland continues his witty and poignant unraveling of modern American life, sounding out the harmonic connections between what we have been given, how it makes us feel, and how to speak of it. Funny, combative, intimate, and public, these poems advocate that we must fight for clarity, reinvent our affections, and remain, as best we can, unincorporated.

Description

From the Publisher: The new poetry collection by Tony Hoagland, the award-winning author of What Narcissim Means To Me and Donkey Gospel. In Unincorporated Persons in the Late Honda Dynasty, Tony Hoagland is deep inside a republic that no longer offers reliable signage, in which comfort and suffering are intimately entwined, and whose citizens gasp for oxygen without knowing why. With Hoagland's trademark humor and social commentary, these poems are exhilarating for their fierce moral curiosity, their desire to name the truth, and their celebration of the resilience of human nature.
