These poems, 2016-2018, try to find out just how changed my dear city and how troubled my days.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAndrei Codrescu\u003c\/b\u003e was born in Sibiu, Transylvania, Romania, and emigrated to the United States in 1966.
