Riassunto

Poetry. The poems in Grace Ocasio's chapbook HOLLERIN FROM THIS SHACK call us, challenge us to assess our lives. Her speaker trains her eye on urban and suburban landscapes. In many of the poems, she urges us to observe our daily rites: how we behave at the grocery store or mall, how we treat the opposite sex, and how we view our position to nature. We see ourselves in these poems and we cringe: few heroes exist, and the ones who do exist--real-life figures like Dr. King and Mother Hale--appear because of their referential or historical import. If we are disturbed by these poems we should be. Ocasio's vision is troubling, to say the least.
