Parallel Lives: A Collection of Poems by Michael Lind
Michael Lind has been described by Rolling Stone magazine as "that rarest of figures: an intellectual with name recognition." Now the Whitehead Senior Fellow at the New America Foundation in Washington, D.C., Lind has been an editor or staff writer for The New Yorker, Harper's Magazine, and The New Republic and writes frequently for the New York Times and the Financial Times. He is the author of more than a dozen books of history, political journalism, and fiction, including a poetry chapbook, When You Are Someone Else (2002), Bluebonnet Girl (2004), a children's book in verse which won an Oppenheimer Toy Prize for children's literature, and a narrative poem, The Alamo (1997), which the Los Angeles Times named as one of the best books of the year. Parallel Lives is his first collection of verse. Hear Garrison Keillor read from Parallel Lives on The Writer's Almanac. November 6th: The Hour |
