Magical Negro - Parker, Morgan

Résumé :

A National Book Critics Circle Poetry Award Winner!

From the breakout author of There Are More Beautiful Things Than Beyonc? comes a profound and deceptively funny exploration of Black American womanhood.

Morgan Parker's latest collection is a riveting testimony to everyday blackness . . . It is wry and atmospheric, an epic work of aural pleasures and personifications that demands to be read--both as an account of a private life and as searing political protest. --TIME Magazine
