The Star-Spangled Banner

Más información sobre el libro

Exploring themes of love and cultural misunderstanding, this collection of poems reflects on the complexities of relationships across national boundaries. The title poem features a child's misinterpretation of "The Star-Spangled Banner," leading to whimsical imagery of foreign romance. Throughout the book, language barriers and class differences create humorous yet poignant moments, such as a father-in-law's misguided remarks about students abroad. With a blend of levity and irreverence, the work delves into the intersections of ethnicity, class, and gender in American society.
