 The book is a lugubrious elegy for the things that shouldn’t have died, a waiting-out of the last days of a crumbling empire. It is a book uniquely concerned with violence and with masculinity. People, cities, and even heavenly bodies die on nearly every one of its pages, lengthily, often grotesquely; young boys and men have the worst of it
The poems in National Anthem, the fourth collection of poetry from critically-acclaimed poet and critic Kevin Prufer, are finely-studied short films about America in the 21st century. Set in an apocalyptic and post-apocalyptic world that is disturbing because it is uncannily familiar, National Anthem chronicles the aftermath of the failure of imperial vision. Allowing Rome and America to bleed into one another, Prufer masterfully weaves the threads of history into an anthem that is as intimate as it is far-reaching.
