The title misrepresents and undersells this book, which is in fact a well researched and written essay on modern day perceptions of the ‘working class’ and what is means to be labelled as such.

"Another book of poetry that taught me what the form was. Forché has a beautiful sense of rhythm. I teach her famous poem ""The Colonel"" in essay and nonfiction classes. It's all about what you don't say."
