Publisher's Note An anthology of poems that explores the core of teenage feelings of angst and alienation. Through careful selection, Ruth Gordon shares the voices of poets--from ancient to modern and from many different cultures--who themselves often have felt excluded from the world or the times in which they lived.
Industry Reviews "Despite its subject matter, the book's effect is uplifting, evidence that poetry can connect us in subtle ways, easing the very loneliness it describes." Gordon
