The speaker "dreams back," as it were, to the 1980s, when, as a young man in his thirties and caring for a young daughter after a recent divorce, he is having to juggle both personal and cultural/historical complexities living as a single parent in Manhattan. The poems create a montage that has the feel of history as lived experience, with the speaker struggling with the nature of memory as the poems move constantly back and forth to the Syrian desert, the dissolution of his marriage, visits and conversations with a cousin dying of AIDS, and encounters with famous jazz producers at Columbia Records to discuss music. In this book, Peter Balakian aims at the bigger picture of humanity's history of atrocity and trauma, but through short vignettes grounded in everyday situations, and in particular times and places"--Publisher's info. 000745735 586__ $$aPulitzer Prize, 2016. 000745735 651_0 $$aSyria$$vPoetry. 000745735 655_7 $$aPoetry.$$2lcgft 000745735 830_0 $$aPhoenix poets. 000745735 85200 $$bgen$$hPS3552.A443$$iO97$$i2015 000745735 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:745735$$pGLOBAL_SET 000745735 980__ $$aBIB 000745735 980__ $$aBOOK
