Description
Poetry. Asian American Studies. WOODRAT FLAT, by the late Albert Saijo, includes work from the late 1980s and early 1990s, prescient poems about the environment, marijuana farming, and the failures of government; as well as beautiful, close observations of the natural world. Neglected as a Beat poet because he was Asian American (he was interned at Heart Mountain & served in the 442nd in Italy), the time has come to pay close attention to him and his words.
