A MovieCourtney Bush A Movie, a book length poem written in sentences, explores the ways movies are woven into the fabric of a life, as cultural products, as objects of intimacy, as social touchstones, as an ideal, as shorthand for certain kinds of experience, while also telling the story of the poets production of an eighteen minute vampire movie. 'In A Movie, Courtney Bush presents us with a screen upon which we can view her virtuosic intelligence, pathos

and over the years her circle of friends included Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera

and London the action of arranging becomes a means of sounding out a collective utterance of Black survival with joy amid grief

in mindere mate

From her deep excavations of documentary materials

Upon closer inspection

These poems destroy lies to buzz around us no more

Michel wordt beschouwd als een van de belangrijkste hedendaagse dichters

Kareem delineates 'rupture' as a facet of the migrant's experience

Amplifying common etymologies

een ideale introductie voor wie nog niet met deze wondermooie poëzie in aanraking kwam
