Yardbirds Squawking at the Moon

Yardbirds Squawking at the Moon

Reggie Scott Young
4.3/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
From the Cold War to the New Millennium, from the Bluesville section of Chicago to the bayous of south Louisiana, Reggie Scott Young takes his readers on a wild ride through half a century of American experience. The hot-button topics of race, class, religion, gender, family, and politics are all fair game to his observant eye and honest pen. Nothing is sacred to this poet, not even Abraham Lincoln or his own preacher-father’s extramarital affairs. In the democratic spirit of Whitman, Sandburg, Brooks, and Hughes, Young sends forth his “barbaric squawk” at the moon, resulting in poems that are direct, alive, necessary, and memorable.
