Beskrivelse
1991 PEN Oakland/Josephine Miles Award for Literary Excellence
The Concrete River is a collection of poems by poet laureate of Los Angeles Luis Rodr guez. They illuminate the gritty idiosyncrasies of immigrant life in urban barrios spanning Los Angeles to Chicago to Harlem. Rodr guez lends powerful voices to those struggling to keep the gas on, to find work, and to keep love. Populated by a vibrant cast of characters, ranging from the drugged, to the eccentric, to the heartbroken, Rodr guez's poems protest capitalism, violence, and exploitation while reveling in the potential of compassion.
