Sobre IBD

Britt’s 19th book of poetry, 'Emergency Room,' a collection of what could be called some of his most profound and difficult work to date, offers us an example of how a poet addresses social issues without being didactic. For the 'issue' that underlies the 'Emergency Room,' taken as a whole, is nothing less than Amer­ica’s descent into the twenty-first cen­tury’s version of the Wasteland.
