Malcontent - Paperback

by Jenn Blair (Author)

Winner of Prize Americana, Jenn Blair's poetry collection MALCONTENT takes the reader on a journey through American history that is at once fresh, startling, and epic in its sweep. According to Sara Henning, in these -luminous poems, be prepared to meet a motley crew: the discontented, the rebellious, and the attentive gather to bear witness and unearth epiphany. In poems that range from dramatic monologues to first person confessions, with a historical panorama vacillating from the Civil War to the near contemporaneous, Blair invites us into a world that makes reverence from the gorgeously quotidian.-
