Peninsula
註釋No man is an island entire of himself, but many are peninsulas. Mark Fogarty's dramatic new book of poetry examines a life surrounded by water on three sides and connected to land by one side. This wide-ranging volume traces the disconnections of modern life as well as the sweet moments when the stars all line up. Fogarty's love of music shines out through his poems on many of his favorite musicians: Ozzy Osbourne, Lisa Lopes, Jaco Pastorius, Glen Matlock. There are also a few shouts out to favorite athletes: Muhammad Ali, Henry Aaron, Jackie Robinson. PENINSULA also features the major poem "A Sash for Addie Mae Collins," about the 1963 Birmingham church bombing. You will also find out how he is related to Queen Elizabeth!
