Sobre IBD

The Wake-Up Blast captures over three decades of poetic protest and dissent, reflected through the lens of personal experiences and encounters throughout the world, and explores a wide range of explosive social and political themes. In interweaving the personal, the social and the political, Hall Gardner’s poetry captivates readers through rallying cries against fear and violence in a counter-visionary quest to transcend the present global crisis and to achieve mutual understanding among conflicting peoples and states-through engaged dialogue and the medium of poetry.
