With raw, lyrical intensity, Roskolenko conjures the crowded tenements, street-corner philosophers, and radical political ferment that shaped his restless young mind. The work captures the tension between the Old World traditions of his family and the electric, chaotic promise of American urban life, illustrating how a poet's sensibility is forged in poverty and community. Roskolenko's voice is at once nostalgic and unflinching, rendering a vanished world with the precision of a witness and the passion of a true literary outsider.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48839384957147,"sku":"2026770002126-SECONDHAND","price":30.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/c1a42ada-b334-42d8-a6e7-236d849291e0.png?v=1780561209","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026770002126-secondhand-when-i-was-last-on-cherry-street","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
