内容简介 Realistic, and often cynical, these epitaphs are spoken from the grave by a collection of two hundred and forty four people buried in a village cemetery in America's Midwest. The whole spectrum of human life is represented here; with everyone from poet to shopkeeper given a chance to narrate their life, and tell of their thwarted hopes and dreams; and their struggles, both personal and political. With these classic poems, Masters took his revenge on the hypocrisy and narrow-mindedness of small-town America, portraying a town filled with injustice, corruption, and cruelty.

As well as verse, he also wrote biographies of fellow writers including Mark Twain and Walt Whitman. Shena Mackay is the author of a number of works, including the Booker-shortlisted The Orchard on Fire. Her most recent novel, Heligoland (2003), was shortlisted for the both Orange Prize for Fiction and the Whitbread Novel Award.

Because Hallivas's pithy introduction adds both perspective and gossipy detail, YAs will enjoy learning about the individual struggles of the 244 characters who speak from the cemetery on "the hill." Secondary teachers will find this a useful tool for preparing character sketches, thanks to the lively, specific annotations naming names: who rejected whom; who challenged whom, both physically and politically--and it is all expertly researched. The microcosm of Spoon River comes alive with its central conflicts of agrarian traditionist v. temperance and abolitionist activism. From the grave, the hard-drinking, roughly hewn frontiersmen challenge the do-good social reformers, reenacting the struggle the 19th-century midwestern push kindled: would any government law prohibiting drinking or slavery impress these strong individual-rights townspeople? They offer their own answers as Masters intended, but they offer the responses against a tapestry of detail the editor provides. Hallivas's cogent essay traces the philosophical influences that marked Masters's works: Spinoza, Goethe, and especially Whitman. The inclusion of several photographs of the characters who speak adds important visual detail.
