Repressions

Repressions is a collection of poems by authors William S. Tribell, Tina Twito, and J L Carey Jr. Their Repressionist movement culminated during the economic downturn known as the “Great Recession,” a period of general economic decline observed in world markets during the late 2000s and 2010s. The work explored social and economic repressions, as well as, repressed memories and emotions. Many of their poems sought to understand and bring these repressions to the surface, thus re-pressing them or bringing them to light once again. The collection also captures the spirit of what came to be known as the “lost generation”
