First Edition
paperback. Condition: Very Good in Wrappers. No Jacket. First Edition. Middletown. 1985. Wesleyan University Press. 1st Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 0819561398. Published Simultaneously In Hardcover. 64 pages. paperback. Cover design by Joyce Kachergis Book Design & Production. keywords: African American Literature Poetry America Women. DESCRIPTION - This collection of Thulani Davis's poetry is a remarkable, galvanic experience reminiscent of the visionary beauty and fiery resolution of Sonia Sanchez or Ntozake Shange. These are poems of visceral impact, whether they speak of the shattering of a love, the violence of history or modern life, or the 'whole body of God, weighing down on one nail.' There are poems of passionate sensuality and stunning loss. This is the work, Ishmael Reed wrote, of 'a formidable poet. inimitable. a serious artist who deserves serious readers.' 'Witty, vibrant rap poems that come at you with the immediacy of spontaneous composition. subtle and complex.' -- Publishers Weekly. 'Playing the Changes is a major accomplishment in North American poetry. the work of an absolutely singular and faithful intelligence.' -- June Jordan. inventory #26214.
