{"product_id":"calling-in-black-nicholle-ramsey-9781736074619","title":"calling in black","description":"Arresting and beautiful...\"In Nicholle Ramsey's first book, calling in black, we hear a fresh, young voice, informed by Spoken Word luminaries such as Danez Smith, and Mai'a Williams but there are also echoes of poets a generation back, like Maya Angelou, Sonia Sanchez, Lucille Clifton, Amiri Baraka, Audre Lorde, Nikki Giovanni, Diane DiPrima and Adrienne Rich. There is strength in these poems, there is intimacy; there is self-confidence, there is vulnerability; there is innocence, there is maturity. The poems are honest, funny, insightful, intelligent, eloquent. When you hear them performed, they ring with life-they shine. This is true of the poems on the page, also. The poet is tough on us, while being generous.\"-Ken McCullough, former Poet Laureate of Winona, Minnesota Author of \"Broken Gates and Dark Stars\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Nicholle Ramsey\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 173607461X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781736074619\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Talking Drum, LLC\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/23\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 78\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.28lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.19d","brand":"Nicholle Ramsey","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45482570580223,"sku":"9781736074619","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_bacb2382-18e2-4cc7-ac39-bb67bbb584d7.jpg?v=1715998925","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/calling-in-black-nicholle-ramsey-9781736074619","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
