Zusammenfassung: | "A series of poems drawn from various collections published throughout the 40-year career of American poet Lucille Clifton"-- "How to Carry Water: Selected Poems of Lucille Clifton celebrates both familiar and lesser-known works by one of America's most beloved poets, including 10 newly discovered poems that have never been collected. These poems celebrating black womanhood and resilience shimmer with intellect, insight, humor, and joy, all in Clifton's characteristic style -- a voice that the late Toni Morrison described as 'seductive with the simplicity of an atom, which is to say highly complex, explosive underneath an apparent quietude.' Selected and introduced by award-winning poet Aracelis Girmay, this volume of Clifton's poetry is simultaneously timeless and fitting for today's tumultuous moment."--Publisher's description |

These poems celebrating black womanhood and resilience shimmer with intellect, insight, humor, and joy, all in Clifton's characteristic style -- a voice that the late Toni Morrison described as 'seductive with the simplicity of an atom, which is to say highly complex, explosive underneath an apparent quietude.' Selected and introduced by award-winning poet Aracelis Girmay, this volume of Clifton's poetry is simultaneously timeless and fitting for today's tumultuous moment."--Publisher's description American poetry African Americans / Poetry African American women / Poetry African Americans African American women Poetry (DE-588)4002214-6 Anthologie gnd-content Girmay, Aracelis 1977- (DE-588)1238522297 edt Erscheint auch als Online-Ausgabe, ebook 9781950774166 American poets continuum series no. 180 (DE-604)BV001328078 180 |
