Girly man

Bernstein, Charles, 1950-

Girly man [electronic resource] / Charles Bernstein. - University of Chicago Press, 2006. - 1 online resource (vii, 186 p.) : ill.

Includes bibliographical references.

After 9/11, postmodernism and irony were declared dead. Charles Bernstein here proves them alive and well in poems elegiac, defiant, and resilient to the point of approaching song. Heir to the democratic and poetic sensibilities of Walt Whitman and Allen Ginsberg, Bernstein has always crafted verse that responds to its historical moment, but no previous collection of his poems so specifically addresses the events of its time as Girly Man, which features works written on the evening of September 11, 2001, and in response to the war in Iraq. Here, Bernstein speaks out, combining self-deprecating.
