East Rock - Hardback

Inspired by a painting that conflates New England and the American Southwest, Paul Stroble has written a poem that melds his years in Connecticut and Arizona. He acknowledges the history and presence of Native American tribes in the lands that he himself has loved. As a descendant of the Mayflower pilgrims, Stroble uses biblical, geological, historical, and personal resources on a pilgrimage of family and identity via his American forbears.
