More about the book

Exploring the intersection of poetry and politics during the Depression era, Sarah Ehlers presents a fresh perspective on modern poetics by examining both well-known and obscure poets of the 1930s left. Through archival research, she challenges the perception of leftist poetry as mere propaganda, showcasing how these poets innovated with various forms and genres. Ehlers argues that understanding the connections between these movements is essential for grasping the evolution of modern poetry and its role in reflecting historical changes.
