Summary: Wonderful, powerful, memorable
Comment: This fine 1994 chapbook reprints some of the excellent epigrams in Barth's 1990 "Simonides in Vietnam" and adds some new ones reflecting Barth's satiric/meditative post-Vietnam War observations on war. In one poem (not in this collection) Barth refers to the epigram as the guerilla's small arms fire, and Barth is an accomplished marksman. As is true of his earlier work, these poems are humane, anti-establishment, ironic, sometimes bitter, and witty. Several poems illustrate a veteran's resentment of the rich who escaped the war, politicians, and wannabe chicken hawks. These are memorable poems, some of which I return to again and again.
