Produktbeschreibung

Dayton J. Shafer's HOMESICE is a regaling, a rhapsodizing on a singular swath of millennialhood-the '81-'85 babies, the elders. Part document, part performance, part poetry, these call-and-response nonfiction monologues address and deconstruct the turn of the millennium's most repressed issues-privilege and enabling, communal trauma, cognitive dissonance, evolving masculinity, artistic portraits, and fallen idols. Framed with the interactive rhetorical refrain: Is Your American Dream-, each monologue casts the reader as a chorus member in the meaning-making process-asking him to examine directly how the American individual can be a citizen of both society and self.
