Collected here are poems from Peter Oresick’s previous books, beginning with The Story of Glass (1977), and to them are added 36 new poems called Under the Carpathians. His work—known for working class and Catholic themes—probes labor and social history, post-World War II America, Eastern European identity, Eastern Rite Catholicism, and Russian icons and fine art and especially Pittsburgh-born pop art icon Andy Warhol.

<p>Published on the occasion of Andy Warhol's 80th birthday, Warhol-o-rama surveys the extraordinary life?and robust afterlife?of AndyWarhol (1928-1987). In this rollicking poetic sequence Peter Oresick reads Warhol through the eyes and words of others?from critics to Catholics to Carpatho-Rusyns. The result is an unorthodox and entertaining serial portrait of an American artist whose 15 minutes of fame seem to have no end in sight.</p>
