At the center of it all, a teenage boy's suicide resonates through the lives of those closest to him. The poems in Bruce Snider's Paradise, Indiana describe a place where mundane events neighbor the most harrowing. Shaped by the author's experiences growing up in rural Indiana, Snider investigates the landscapes traditionally claimed by male poets such as James Wright, James Dickey, and Richard Hugo, whose visions of place rarely, if ever, included the presence of gays and lesbians. Paradise, Indiana envisions a seldom recorded rural America, one where everything exists side by side: the county fair and an abandoned small town gay bar, farmers and cross-dressers, death and hope, beauty and despair. 001483170 650_0 $$aCountry life$$zIndiana$$vPoetry. 001483170 650_7 $$aCountry life.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst00881405 001483170 650_7 $$aLyrik.$$2idszbz 001483170 650_7 $$aAmerikanisches Englisch.$$2idszbz 001483170 651_7 $$aIndiana.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01204604 001483170 655_7 $$apoetry.$$2aat$$0(CStmoGRI)aatgf300055931 001483170 655_7 $$aPoetry.$$2fast$$0(OCoLC)fst01423828 001483170 655_7 $$aPoetry.$$2lcgft 001483170 655_7 $$aPoésie.$$2rvmgf$$0(CaQQLa)RVMGF-000000476 001483170 830_0 $$aLena-Miles Wever Todd poetry series. 001483170 85200 $$bsc 001483170 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1483170$$pGLOBAL_SET 001483170 980__ $$aBIB 001483170 980__ $$aBOOK
