Accordion:
January is National Polka Month. And what better place to commemorate this iconic sound than in Wisconsin, where the polka is our state dance? To celebrate, poet Susan Firer shares her poem “1956, The Year My Sister, Using Her Ill Health Once Again, Blackmailed My Parents Into An Accordion.”
Commentator Susan Firer is the former poet laureate of Milwaukee and the author of many books, including Milwaukee Does Strange Things To People.
