Bringing the Shovel Down (Pitt Poetry Series)

By Ross Gay, Ana Huang, Eden O'Neill

Book Overview

Bringing the Shovel Down maps the long and arduous process of being inculcated with the mythologies of state and power, the ramifications of that inculcation (largely, the loss of our humanity in the service of maintaining those mythologies), and finally, what it might mean, what it might provide us, if we were to transform those myths. The book, finally, has one underlying question: How might we better love one another?
