Marc is Executive Editor of Mad Hatters' Review and MadHat Press and Coeditor-in-Chief at Fulcrum: an annual of poetry and aesthetics.Reviews "China throws long shadows. Somewhere between Mao's revelation of the use of the vast Chinese masses, and between Colonel Sanders and Steve Jobs' revelation of the same masses and their use, nothing happened. The masses died, mostly, quickly in battle or slowly by toxins, and the wisdom of monks in the caves stayed the same. The masses and the monks in their caves play an ancient game in Marc Vincenz verses, a complex game of poetry Go, born of the poet's encounter with real people who are at the same time a mass. China's paradoxes breathe in his poems." Andrei Codrescu, poet, novelist, essayist and screenwriter "Everything under heaven is in utter chaos; the situation is excellent," says Mao. Marc Vincenz uses the Chairman as a guide in this Dantesque tour of China. A book that registers bewilderment and grit, a book that does not turn away. Probably the most realistic portrait of China I've ever read " Terese Svoboda, poet, novelist, memoirist and translator "Mao's Mole is a must read if you want to know China, its past, present, and future. Marc has managed to enter the most guarded palace through a wormhole, and come out with abundant gifts. Beautiful, powerful, and entertaining all at once." Wang Ping, poet, novelist, translator and teacher

Описание: Vincenz Panny grew up in pre-WWII Germany with its intense frustrations and fervent desire for a return to national honor and respectability. Even as a teenager, he and his friends thought Hitler and his cronies were ridiculous, but adults saw benefits for the hopes of the country. As a young adult Vince had reason to think that when he was drafted into the German Army he could receive training for a future in radio and maybe the theater. His illusions quickly faded, Germany was soon at war. The story describes Panny's war time experiences, noteworthy among them, working under Colonel Reinhard Gehlen at Foreign Armies East military intelligence service, and his connection with those involved in the July 1944 plot to assassinate Hitler. In war time he traveled throughout Europe and Eastern Europe on duties both official and unofficial. The post war period covers four years as a POW in Egypt and his disillusionment upon returning to Germany. His is a unique adventure told with sincerity, and touched with humor and satire. For detail it could be a historical document. More than a war story, however, Panny's words are like a cautionary tale told by an everyman caught up in a sweep of politics and leadership gone wrong. Mere circumstances put Vince as a citizen/soldier, along with his friends, into the middle of a devastating war involving German atrocities he could not forgive.
