reviewed Dominican Republic on August 07, 2014 Dominican Republic
The thing I liked about this was that it includes the most current conflicts--the thing I didn't like is that it excludes some of the older ones and overall, the poems don't necessarily date to the time of the war--which would have been very cool. The book does have the history of the war itself,and the poems are more about the sad things of was than of heroism.
It ends with a poem about who we are today, or at least who we have been recently--maybe Obama can change a little of that.
