Theoryland: A Tragedy in Five Cantos
(CreateSpace) This epic poem satirizes academic pretense. The poem, which tells the story of a young professor who wants to be a big-time player in the land of Theory, incorporates motifs from T.S. Eliot’s The Waste Land and The Love Song of J. Alfred Prufrock, but the final confection is contemporary. Price is an artist, education activist, and the founder of Improve-Education.org.
