Inhaltsangabe

“ David Rigsbee’ s School of the Americas resonates far beyond its fine title poem into a school most of us of a certain age have attended. That is, a school of romance and loss marked by history itself, and a series of dramatic events both minor and major— pop culture and that culture not far above it— that we aspire to. Rigsbee mediates and enlarges these poems with an ease of literary reference and humor, and his characteristic intelligence. A fine book indeed.” — Stephen Dunn
