Atomic Field

Sinopse

"Atomic Field presents two extended poems set in the years 1962 and 1972. Each year includes forty-five poems that evoke the life of a young boy and, later, a young man, during those alternately calm and turbulent decades. Comic books, television, the threat of nuclear war, drug experimentation, travel to Europe, love affairs - these subjects and more form a common thread of growing up in middle-class America and of a young man entering the adult world, feeling and trying to understand its complexities, pains, and joys."--BOOK JACKET.
