Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) These essays albeit temporal, are full of nerve and represent a wide range in a diversity of moods, voices, and deportments. It is nothing less than a political, otherworldly, and intensely atypical record of America's unrestrained modern age, as experienced and observed by Stephen's as historian, actor, scientist and sideline observer, that are both intimate and important to a world that continues to fester in the racial dogma and infection of identity politics that divide by skin color. His essays move from personal experience to larger connotation without disuniting the connection between...

Late Nite Winds Of Club Paradise: Selected Verse
ISBN: 9781522773078 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 136 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych (Bez gwarancji dostawy przed świętami) This collection of verse was inspired by stories Torrance Stephens was told by his aunt, Evelyn 'Whip" Young whom left home in Memphis at age 16 to travel and play saxophone on tour with B.B. King. Her stories of Club Paradise and the other places black musicians were allowed to perform on Old Hernando, off of Beale Street in Memphis, left a lasting impression on him. His poetry is in the tradition of Gerald Barrax and Countee Cullen. His words are gracefully furious and reflect all that a man born in the 1960s south can reflect via pen and paper - intensity and beauty.
