Opis

"It was African American essayist James Baldwin who once famously opined that "The responsibility of a writer is to excavate the experience of the people who produced him." Bermuda-born, Atlanta-based, performance artist, thespian, director and poet, Tamicka Johnson, takes Baldwin's words to heart in her first book of poetry, the creatively titled dee-kuhn-struhk-shuhn]of an Anomaly. Subject-wise, Johnson casts her net wide. Her musings illuminate the many challenges associated with how every one of us must, at some point in our sojourn through this life, grapple with the niggling universals of love, spirituality, passion, sex, disappointment, failure and success with a raw honesty and lyrical dexterity that is often as deeply painful as it is profoundly insightful."
