Rooted in the social activism of Vatican II, the civil rights and
anti-war movements of the sixties, the poetry of John Sheehan is
filled with keen observations of place, people and time, where
steel mills and sand dunes intersect with schoolchildren, overhead
remarks, blues and jazz, where pumpkins sit beneath TV sets blaring
the evening news. Leaving Gary confronts issues of race and class,
religion and landscape, memory and media, chronicling places which
changed and places we wish would change.
