A work of narrative poetry, The Velvet Ghetto is made up of twenty-five poems that form a larger story in verse. These poems capture the tension and erosion of the self that accompanies working for a corporation that values obedience above all else. Grinnell's personal experience gives words to the indignities all employees can suffer in large hierarchical bureaucracies ruled by authoritarian leaders.
