{"product_id":"a-stones-throw-from-cray-9781941561430","title":"A Stone's Throw from Cray","description":"\u003cp\u003eMichelle 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. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Michelle Alexander\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New American Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/01\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 114\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.27h x 5.83w x 0.27d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781941561430\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eAlexander, Michelle:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Michelle Alexander is an American-Trinidadian poet, creative nonfiction writer, and interdisciplinary practitioner.
