In the Black: In the Red: Poems of Profit $ Loss

In the Black: In the Red is an illustrated anthology of poems about money: the financial crisis we face as individuals, as a nation, and as part of the globe. The poems in this collection include topics as diverse as the stock market, greed, labor, unemployment, hunger, the Great Depression, the environment, oil, war, immigration, and just plain cash-or the lack of it. Our 197 poets and artists include poets laureate of the United States and individual States; winners of the Pulitzer Prize, Ruth Lilly Poetry Prize, American Book Award, and the National Book Critics Circle Award and others. Illustrators run the gamut from the late Charles Barsotti of The New Yorker to ericailcane, a remarkably gifted graffiti artist.
