About This Item
New York: Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Publishers, 1984. First Edition. 8vo, quarter maroon cloth over beige boards in the dustjacket. xii, 79. A copy in fine condition. This is Pulitzer Prize winning Alice Walker’s fourth book of poetry. “In spare, eloquent language she writes here about the blight of racism, injustice and hunger, and the need to save our earth from self-immolation. She writes, too, about ordinary joys - a daughter’s homecoming, a lover’s warmth - and about poetry itself: ‘Letting go/ in order to hold on/ I gradually understand/ how poems are made.’”-publisher
