Poetry. From its opening riposte to the militarism of the current U.S. government, to its closing satire of Canadian culture, AMERICAN STANDARD / CANADA DRY surveys nation and identity on both sides of the border. Stephen Cain's third collection also includes odes to video games, poems culled from Viagra junk mail and CNN reports on the war, as well as concrete poetry, mistranslations of bird poems, and riffs on Canadian history and dialect. Deftly oscillating between vitriolic verse and humor, the poems interrogate poetics and nationalism as thoroughly as a burly border avant-guard. Stephen Cain is the author of DYSLEXICON and Torontology.
