|  | Poems for the Nation by Allen Ginsberg, Andy Clausen, Eliot Kutz
With poems by Ginsberg, Diane Di Prima, Wanda Coleman, Anne Waldman, William Burroughs, Lawrence Ferlinghetti, and others, this book represents a broad collection of writers focused on contemporary political life in America at the end of the 20th century. Many deplore what they see as a rightward drift in American politics and exhort poets and others to take up political calls more forthrightly. Ginsberg was working on this project, at the request of The Nation, when he died in 1997, and the work on it was finished by two editors who knew him. AUTHOR: Allen Ginsberg, Andy Clausen, Eliot Kutz
