Landscape with Mutant

Poems about US life before and during the Trump presidency, with its alienation, violence, and political despair. In this dystopian landscape, `the weak exist to be trodden and those who are trodden are weak.' It is a book about casual racism, sharp-suited Fascism and the complicity of liberals in the assault on equality and justice. Between the narrow horizons of the mainstream and the games of the academic avant-garde, Fred Pollack makes strong poetry about something important. He lives in Washington DC.
