Sobre IBD

The Great American Scapegoat is the first book-length collection of poems from Bloomington-based performance poet Tony Brewer. In it, he lays out his singular poetic vision of growing up, growing apart, and growing older amid the landscape - both real and intangible - of these United States. A sharp, eclectic, personal reflection, The Great American Scapegoat evokes the desire to hold on to innocence while learning to live with hard realities.
