More about the book
Exploring the historical context of America's divisions, this collection of non-sentimental poems reflects on the violent tensions leading to civil war. Narrated by white Americans, the poems examine their relationship with "slave power" and cotton, depicting them as "lords of the loom" and "lords of the lash." With Boston, Lawrence, and Lowell as focal points, the work captures the cultural landscape shaped by these themes, offering a clear and literal portrayal of the complexities surrounding this dark chapter in history.
