Displaying a sure sense of craft and a sharp facility for
linking personal experience to the public realms of history and
politics, Jehanne Dubrow's "Red Army Red" chronicles the coming of
age of a child of American diplomats in Eastern Europe in the
1980s. In the last moments of the Cold War, Poland--the setting for
many of the poems--lurches fitfully from a society characterized by
hardship and deprivation toward a free-market economy. The
contradictions and turmoil generated by this transition are the
context in which an adolescent girl awakens to her sexuality. With
wit and subtlety, Dubrow makes apparent the parallels between the
body and the body politic, between the fulfillment of individual
and collective desires.
