Publisher Description: Does the GREAT BORDER WALL looming on the U.S. border with Mexico reinforce the American ideal which says that people are "endowed by their creator with the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness..."? Or does THE WALL represent the death of the American experiment? Poets from across America and the world come together in this anthology to address the meaning and the effects of building THE WALL. Perhaps the biggest, most impenetrable wall to be revealed is ultimately not the physical one between USA and Mexico, but the one inside us, preventing us from seeing our immigrant forefathers and mothers in the current immigrants and refugees on the southern border. |
