Bread Alone

Bag om Bread Alone

In this provocative collection, Kim Jensen gives voice to the struggle of those who seek love in a world saturated with brutality and aggression. Using accessible language and raw imagery, this work offers a searing portrait of the ruins of love and war. The concise lyrics in Bread Alone condemn the violence in Iraq, Palestine, and Lebanon, while exploring the intimate consequences of these and other injustices. Darkly humorous, grotesque, sorrowful, outraged, and sometimes poignantly hopeful, these poems possess a strange beauty and remind us of the key purposes of poetry--to warn and to revive our sense of conscience and connection.
