Ruby began the book in the aftermath of the 9/11 attacks, when he saw people freely using U.S. national symbols for their own political purposes. He decided to do the same thing for poetic purposes. Every poem in the book, which is dedicated to Jasper Johns and Jimi Hendrix, uses the 81 words of the national anthem and inserts words into the spaces between them. The poems have different vocabularies-sometimes surrealist like Ruby's related book, American Songbook (2013), sometimes documentary and personal like his trilogy Memories, Dreams and Inner Voices (2012). The Star-Spangled Banner is an artistic encounter with one of America's leading national symbols, using the frame of Francis Scott Key's War of 1812 lyrics in unexpected ways, and an unusual verbal and emotional portrait of the time from 9/11 to 11/9"-- $c Provided by publisher. 500 $a Poems. 630 00 $a Star-spangled banner (Song) $v Poetry. 630 07 $a Star-spangled banner (Song) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01356119 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 650 0 $a Political poetry, American. 650 7 $a Political poetry, American. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01069520 650 7 $a Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01919741 651 0 $a United States $x Politics and government $y 21st century $v Poetry. 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423828 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031919.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1D3B6FDE78F711ECAF30597D2FECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
