What Is The Meaning Of Life
by Just Marino
Marino's poetic protest to the world - a testimony to the depths of human potential and deviance - is a challenge to us all, to awake and confront the world we have wrought. This collection of poetry is inspired by the Jewish prophetic tradition; a tradition of speaking truth to power, of decrying our sins with a call to better ourselves - out of love for humanity and out of reverance for the truth that can not be bought or conquered.
With a precocious sense of irony and youthful optimism, Marino portrays the vulgarity of today's culture from a perspective that is at the same time both jaded and poignant. Whether you want to add this powerful volume to your personal library or wish to present it as a fitting gift to a friend or family member - What Is The Meaning Of Life is sure to hit home with any thoughtful reader.
This collection includes:
- Allen Ginsberg, Are You Lonely? / Where Have You Gone, Friedrich Nietzsche?
- I Try to Mean It When I Smile
- The N Word
- I Once Knew A Tiger
- Visions of My Savior
- Election Day Re-Runs
