Description

Poetry. Tony Hoagland's work grapples with the distortions of contemporary America and what it takes to remain human in these strange times. His wry, penetrating poems admired by Boomers and Millennials alike, restlessly seek to awaken us from our dream. Full of warm hearted cynicism, wild humor, and keen emotional attentiveness, his sensibility is so distinct it could be given its own adjective, "hoaglandesque."
