Testimony: The United States 1885-1890 - Recitative por Charles Reznikoff
Mr. Reznikoff 1894-1976, grew up in New York City. As an attorney and poet he composed this "testimony" drawn from the law reports from several States, in the period 1885 to 1890. While we may be surprised by the amount of violence, we are also struck by its wanton diversity. He presents the cases without the judgments, awards, and sentencing. None of those things did any good.
This turned out to be quite an interesting book with a clear pitcture of life many years ago. I don't remember reading other work in this stark style, although it did remind me a little of John Steinbeck. The writing seemed to match the stark, difficult times.
