In Jaswinder Bolina’s English as a Second Language and Other Poems, we are asked to imagine the tender and harsh realities of this world within a single breath. Coated in an armor of wit and humor and steeped in the idiosyncrasies of language, English as a Second Language pits sentimentality against cynicism and the personal against the national. What remains is the kaleidoscopic image of the modern American condition.
