In his latest collection, George Guida seeks our universal connection through popular culture. His poems follow Michael Jackson onto the dance floor, figure Bob Dylan as a poem, chase Alec Baldwin's living ghost, pray with Aretha Franklin, marry Jay-Z and Beyoncé, cross over with Shakira, smile with the Beach Boys, dream of Barry Manilow, digitize ABBA, fight lost wars with Pearl Jam, fight obscurity with Sly Stone, act with Sarah Bernhardt, die with Vic Morrow, fade away with Kurt Cobain, recover with Amy Winehouse, persist with José Feliciano, and find new life in the Beatles. Blending art, philosophy, metaphor, and humor, Guida's poems transform each song, each performance, each artist into a platform for our ultimate reality.
