This collection captures some of the Bay area's best hard-edged writers. We get Peter Plate's political view of the world, complete with authoritarian cops, neglected and tossed to the side individuals, and that slowly seeping anger that threatens to tear the walls apart. Wend O'Matic throws some gut poems at us that leave the solar plexus gasping for a taste of air. Jerme Spew, Bucky Sinister, David McCord, and many other writers make an appearance, with insightful bitter tales of life.--oberc
