Some Were Burnt is a collection of prose writings and essay-type shorts by poet T. Dove Lourde. Based on and in America, Lourde attempts to reveal and dissect what he calls the 'dystopics of the American dreamscape' and converse about them openly. Written in a self-described abstract lyrical prose, the author believes the book reads like a novel, with each topic being its own chapter that builds on and bleeds into the next, connecting topics that range from politics and religion, to celebrity obsession, censorship, Big business, immortality, and many others. Although sometimes dark, and stark, and frank in its view and outlook (the book culminates in a clash) the author believes that, like America, his book is about the hope and light found in between the cynicism, skepticism and pessimism that pervades him and his generations mindset, but to ignore the dark and the folly is to invite ruin. Some Were Burnt is a look into modern day America.
