"A lion in literature's forest"--Maya Angelou
A dazzling selection of poems from one of the most beloved American poets, whose distinctive verse resonates around the globe Few poets in history have possessed the irrepressible humanity and abundant positivity that characterize Sonia Sanchez's astonishing body of work. Energetic, infectious and rich with sonic exuberance, Sanchez's poems have radically transformed the direction of American poetry over the past six decades and have been an inspiration to readers around the world, including Toni Morrison and Chinua Achebe. Whether it's her iconic haiku, rhythmic ballads or devastating elegies, Sanchez's luminous verse thrums with a profound generosity and an international consciousness, rendering all of life's agony and ecstasy. This volume draws on Sanchez's diverse repertoire to showcase the multiplicities of the poet's voice--the profound and personal, the firebrand and socially conscious, the playful and formally dexterous, and the musical--to celebrate her as one of the world's most skilled and versatile poets of the past half century.
