Michelle Alexander's A Stone's Throw from C r a y takes up and is moved by radical Black creativity. To be thrown here unfolds an experience of human connection, struggle, and transformation within and outside institutionalized and Afro-Caribbean contexts. The poems skip across surfaces while collapsing personal and collective histories, thereby shifting spaces of potential that also unsettle Alexander's demarcations. Unfurling remixed narratives and embracing identities' fluidities, the subjects vibrate with her American-Trinidadian imagination. She poetically ambiguates and attends to the relations between the living and the dead, psychosocial precarity, and colonialism. Here, our journey steps alongside her chances at resilience.
