Description: "The poems in The Hunger Wall, named for the wall near the Prague Castle, take these two cultural sensibilities that seem worlds apart and explore the subtle nuances of their unlikely similarities. In beautifully crafted and metaphorically rich language, Ragan studies what it means to set a "border," whether it be political, racial, or economic.

The Hunger Wall examines a continually changing world - a world of shifting cultural identities in which the widening gap between the rich and the poor is dangerously explosive."--BOOK JACKET.
