Reviews
"Over the course of her career, Patricia Smith has a reputation for tackling complicated ideas, combining humor and tragedy, and bridging the gap between spoken word and lyrical prose." --Alex Dueben, The Millions "A great stage performer and a former national slam poetry champion, Smith is also a performer on the page." --John S. O'Connor, Harvard Review "Smith has a way of shining light into the darkness with a necessary and timely tongue of fire, challenging readers to open their eyes and face the truth." --Kathryn de Lancellotti, The Bind "This is an affecting, lyrical work of empathy and imagination complemented by stunning images." --starred review, Publishers Weekly, "Over the course of her career, Patricia Smith has a reputation for tackling complicated ideas, combining humor and tragedy, and bridging the gap between spoken word and lyrical prose." --Alex Dueben, The Millions "A great stage performer and a former national slam poetry champion, Smith is also a performer on the page." --John S. O'Connor, Harvard Review "Smith has a way of shining light into the darkness with a necessary and timely tongue of fire, challenging readers to open their eyes and face the truth." --Kathryn de Lancellotti, The Bind, PRAISE FOR PATRICIA SMITH "Her work is always timely, powerful, necessary, and at turns heartbreaking." --Natasha Trethewey, author of Memorial Drive: A Daughter's Memoir, "Over the course of her career, Patricia Smith has a reputation for tackling complicated ideas, combining humor and tragedy, and bridging the gap between spoken word and lyrical prose." --Alex Dueben, The Millions "A great stage performer and a former national slam poetry champion, Smith is also a performer on the page." --John S.

This invocation across time is at the heart of a collection by a poet at the height of her abilities." --Mandana Chaffa, Chicago Review of Books, "Patricia Smith is a masterful poet, performer, and pundit. And while her chosen field is the form and grace of language, her gift to the world that orbits the Black experience is truth." --Walter Mosley, author of The Awkward Black Man: Stories

Synopsis
An award-winning author presents a portrait of Black America in the nineteenth century Over the course of two decades, award-winning poet Patricia Smith has amassed a collection of rare nineteenth-century photographs of Black men, women, and children who, in these pages, regard us from the staggering distance of time. Unshuttered is a vessel for the voices of their incendiary and critical era. Smith's searing stanzas and revelatory language imbue the subjects of the photos with dynamism and revived urgency while she explores how her own past of triumphs and losses is linked inextricably to their long-ago lives: We ache for fiction etched in black and white. Our eyes never touch. These tragic grays and bustles, mourners' hats plopped high upon our tamed but tangled crowns, strain to disguise what yearning does with us. The poet's unrivaled dexterity with dramatic monologue and poetic form reanimates these countenances, staring back from such yesterdays, and the stories they may have told. This is one of American literature's finest wordsmiths doing what she does best--unreeling history to find its fierce and formidable lyric., Patricia Smith's unrivaled dexterity with dramatic monologue and poetic form reanimates these countenances, staring back from such yesterdays, and the stories they may have told. This is one of American literature's finest wordsmiths doing what she does best--unreeling history to find its fierce and formidable lyric.

- n***7 (310)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufReceived the DVD set as listed, and the used discs are in great shape! I doubt I'll be shopping for new discs much now, with sellers like this one and another I recently bought from, why buy new when the used discs work perfectly? Great price too. Set was mailed promptly, in a padded mailer with tracking. Good seller, will shop again.
- h***1 (191)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufBook is exactly as described and even better condition. Looks like brand new. Arrived 4 days before promised date, well packaged and perfectly safe. I shopped around and this was, by far, the best price. I highly recommend not only this hilarious book, but also this Ebay seller.
- s***s (11)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufThe package was shipped here fast, and the CDs were in good condition, but the case got stuck to the pamphlet inside. The seller did tell the truth in saying it was acceptable as was described, and he chose a good price for this, as it is 2 CDs that are almost 15 years old.
