Elegant Rage

This volume of poetry is a tribute to Woody Guthrie, who on the 100th anniversary of his birth, remains one of the patrol saints of American rebelliousness, still causing trouble posthumously, inspiring generations of singers-songwriters-poets, and all who feel constrained by conformity. Joe Klein, one of his biographers, says he was struck by Woody's 'elegant rage.' (Cover art by Native American artist, Bert Seabourn)
