"A Hard Coming of It" and Other Poems |
| Brodsky, Louis Daniel |
| "A Hard Coming of It" and Other Poems is a volume of thirty-two poems written by Louis Daniel Brodsky from 1965 to 1967. Striking images of the real and imagined world abound in these pieces, from vivid glimpses of small-town life to surreal portrayals of city existence. And his reflections on universal themes like faith, love, and justice, heightened by provocative accounts of his own experiences, evoke a timelessness that makes them as relevant today as they were nearly four decades ago. |

Shadow War |
| A Poetic Chronicle of September 11 and Beyond - Volume One |
| Brodsky, Louis Daniel |
| In the forty-nine poems of Shadow War, Louis Daniel Brodsky chronicles the events of that infamous day and the seven weeks that followed, proclaiming both rallying cries and protestations. Free of political agenda, Brodsky immerses us in a chaos of conflicting attitudes and emotions. While many of the poems express patriotic indignation toward America's enemies, some show anger with America itself - its complacency, materialism, and insularity. Several evoke genuine ecumenical sentiments, a desire for people of all faiths to unite, while others are cynical, irreverent, ironic, and absurd. |
