| Featured Title | Identity Theft |
The poems in Jospeph Harrison's second collection, Identity Theft , map the erosions and betrayals of selfhood, both cyberspace-age and age-old. In four sections, he tackles the disintegration of identity under contemporary pressures, social and technological, reflects on the curtailment of identity by loss and encroaching morality, suggests that language and art transform those who use them beyond recognition, and adds historical perspective to our current identity crisis. Award-winner Joseph Harrison's first book Someone Else's Name was named as one of five poetry books of the year by the Washington Post .
