- Summary:
- "In Social Poetics, Mark Nowak imagines a new theory for poetry in the 21st century. Part autobiography, part literary criticism, part Marxist theory, Nowak's new book traces a "people's history of the poetry workshop" and chronicles the past twenty years of his own activism in organizations he founded-the Union of Radical Workers & Writers (URWW) and the Worker Writers School. Social Poetics documents the imaginative militancy and emergent solidarities of a new, insurgent working-class poetry community rising up across the globe"-- Provided by publisher.
