Get Some
Sonja Yelich's Get Some is a daring departure from her previous, award-winning collection, Clung. It follows an American marine, Edgar, serving in Iraq, and the responses of his family back home to his tour of?doody'. Yelich vividly contrasts his life with his family's, and serves up a whirlwind of perspectives on the war and contemporary American life from?The Sopranos' to?Black Hawk Down', YouTube to SUVs. The narrative of Edgar and his family begins to fragment through the book as the horror of war deepens? a marine loses a leg and a plane?breaks its nose on / Poor visibility in.

- "This daring collection of poems follows an American marine during his tour of duty in the Iraq war and vividly contrasts his life in the war with the lives of his family members at home in America. Presenting various perspectives on the war and on contemporary American life in a stream-of-consciousness style, the poems become increasingly fragmented and more disturbing as the war progresses and becomes more dangerous for the soldier."@en
