Blues for Unemployed Secret Police

Doug Anderson's "Blues For Unemployed Secret Police" dramatically reflects his experience of growing up in the sixties, serving as a field medical corpsman in Viet Nam, and confronting the modern era where "a good torturer can always find a job". With passion, humor, and strikingly original images, these poems illuminate everything from bad politics to love gone wrong.
