Each spark that ignites outrage seems unique in the immediacy of the moment, and yet F. R. Foksal, in his poetry collection, shows us that even in the most topical issues can be found a grain of universality. As a non-native English poet, he explores current themes not only through the prism of a wider context, but also through the precision of language.

The poems in The Indignation Parade navigate the topics of one's vulnerability in the face of the passing time, refusal to accept the brutal side of reality, disconnection from the over-sensationalized world, as well as isolation even in the closest of relationships.
