Beschreibung

Praise for Kwame Dawes "Dawes's verse has an expressive power and lyric resonance that can be attributed to a transatlantic consciousness weaned on the spiritual sources of reggae."
- Major Jackson, New York Times Book Review "Dawes elides the role of the midwestern pastoral poet as chronicler of idylls and instead positions himself as an equally valuable chronicler of sorrows...creating space for new voices to be heard."
- Luke Hollis, Harvard Review "[Kwame Dawes's] voice...is crystal clear, accessible and serious, mixing a timeless myth-making energy with a strong contemporary conscience."
- NPR
