Book Synopsis The Edge of Modernism by : Walter Kalaidjian
Book excerpt: Explores American poetry on genocide, the Holocaust, and total war, as well as on postwar social antagonisms, racial oppression, and domestic violence. Combining Psychoanalytic theory and cultural studies, this account of modern poetics analyzes the ways in which literary form gives testimony to the trauma of twentieth-century history.
