Published April 2017
In his collection, It’s All Tangled in the Sweat on My Neck, James M. Croteau captured the essence of growing up with a secret and what the secret can mean when placed in the larger context of a collective. The collection opens with a quote from James Baldwin, “…the great force of history comes from the fact we carry it within us…” and these poems are a testament to Baldwin's musings. Croteau’s poems will leave you in awe and ask you to consider the idea that, “History’s alive and / denied.”
