| framed poem by claire harris: Talk Yuh Talk Kwame Senu Neville Dawes, 2001 In the past 30 years, most Caribbean poetry written in English has come to the US in the lyrics of reggae music, but that is only one aspect of a tradition characterized by continuing tension within a diverse heritage. Interviews in this collection reflect a range of Caribbean voices from several generations, from those poets influenced by a dynamic interplay between the popular culture of reggae music and yard theater to those whose work is closer to classical forms of literature and oral narrative. Dawes teaches English at the University of South Carolina. Annotation copyrighted by Book News Inc., Portland, OR |
| framed poem by claire harris: Concert of Voices Victor J. Ramraj, 1994-12-30 Concert of Voices combines poetry, fiction, drama, and essays in a wide-ranging anthology of world literature in English. The collection includes a number of established writers who despite their great reputations, have often been perceived as standing apart from the main currents of English literature (and have rarely found their way into English Department reading lists). Most selections, though, are by a remarkable range of much less established authors. In addition to the selections, the editor has provided a general introduction and a brief biographical note on each author. The intention in Concert of Voices is both to provide an alternative text to anthologies of traditional and established writings (in which the new writings in English invariably are displaced and marginalized) and to complement these anthologies. In this regard, the word 'other'—which points up apartness and division—was found wanting and dropped from the provisional main title. Its omission draws attention to a concept (and conviction) operative in the construction of the anthology: despite historical and cultural specificities (the focus of cross-cultural and multicultural studies), commonalities and affinities exist among these writings and between writing on both sides of the hegemonic divide. The anthology, then, is not intended simply as an offering of sociological or anthropological insights into these 'different' peoples. The pieces in Concert of Voices also demonstrate that imaginative writings can evolve from a cocoon of particularities into what can be called—modifying a catch-phrase of certain other disciplines—Literature Without Borders. - from the introduction |
| framed poem by claire harris: Poetry by Canadian Women Rosemary Sullivan, 1989 This text presents the work of over seventy writers. Spanning almost two centuries, it reveals a fascinating range of cultural backgrounds, temperaments, and styles. The historical perspective makes it possible to trace a remarkable evolution not only in the concerns that Canadian women have addressed in poetry, but also in the craft with which they have done so. Above all, this anthology acts as a reminder that behind the rich contemporary generation is a long cumulative tradition of women poets who have cleared the way. |

| framed poem by claire harris: Dipped in Shadow Claire Harris, 1996 Claire Harris is one of Canada's most powerful poets. Dipped in Shadow shows her at her strongest: the book's five poems making hard-hitting statements about women and their children. O what are you thinking my sisters, the book's foreword, draws women of all races together in the fundamental facts of female life: fear for themselves and fear for their children. In Night Dances, a frightening story of sexual and physical abuse, knife-sharp language and experimental form expand words far beyond their usual connotations. Sister (Y)our Manchild reminds women that the cruellest soldiers in the most vicious wars are their babies; they have nurtured evil in their beautiful children. This Fierce Body reviews the life of a young man dying of AIDS as friends watch at his bedside. Experimental form and language make Woeman Womb Prisoned, a harrowing evocation of a teenager in childbirth, both moving and provocative. |

| framed poem by claire harris: The Big Sea Langston Hughes, 2022-08-01 In The Big Sea, Langston Hughes artfully chronicles his journey from the Midwest to Harlem during the vibrant period of the Harlem Renaissance, blending autobiographical narrative with profound social commentary. Written in a lyrical prose style, the book captures his artistic growth, personal struggles, and encounters with influential figures in the world of literature and jazz. Hughes's reflection on race, identity, and the African American experience is interspersed with rich imagery and poignant anecdotes, making the text not only a memoir but also a timeless exploration of cultural heritage and resilience. Langston Hughes, known for his pioneering contributions to American literature and the Harlem Renaissance, was deeply influenced by his own life experiences, growing up in a racially segregated America. His travels to Paris, where he mingled with expatriate artists, profoundly impacted his worldview and literary voice. Hughes's commitment to using art as a vehicle for social change and cultural expression imbues The Big Sea with a sense of urgency and relevance that resonates with readers from all backgrounds. This remarkable memoir is recommended for anyone seeking an understanding of the socio-cultural landscape of early 20th-century America, as well as those interested in the intersections of race, art, and identity. Hughes's insightful reflections and eloquent prose offer both historical context and personal depth, making The Big Sea an essential read for lovers of literature and advocates of social justice. |

| framed poem by claire harris: A Way with Wild Things Larissa Theule, 2021-03-18 Meet Poppy – if you can find her! Poppy loves bugs, and can usually be found carrying on conversations with ladybirds or sitting outside among the brightly coloured wildflowers ... but good luck spotting her indoors and around people! She's a master of camouflage, always finding a way to blend into her surroundings. But when a very special bug lands on her grandma's birthday cake, Poppy can't resist popping out to see it. Soon the rest of the guests notice the beautiful dragonfly, and Poppy too. Maybe it's OK to stand out sometimes, just like the vibrant wildflowers and shimmering insects Poppy loves. This poetic and evocative story celebrates the shy and introverted kids among us, as well as the other small creatures to be found if we look closely enough. |

| framed poem by claire harris: Sans Souci Dionne Brand, 2023-04-25 The breathtaking debut short story collection—first published in 1989—from one of Canada's most original and influential writers. Newly available in a special reissue edition from Knopf Canada. “This is political art at its searing best.”—The Women's Review of Books Since her the appearance of her novel In Another Place, Not Here, which was a New York Times Notable Book in 1998, award-winning author Dionne Brand has become one of the most revered figures in Canadian fiction. Sans Souci is Brand’s bold fiction debut, collecting eleven stories that breathe life and language into the lives of women in the Caribbean and the Black diaspora, often dealing with the process—and aftermath—of transit and arrival. Brand’s fiction dissects sexual violence, racial prejudice, and war, while attending to the full spectrum of experiences of those who live in the shadow of a shared colonial past—experiences encompassing both joy and sorrow, release and constraint. Now available for the first time in more than a decade, Sans Souci and Other Stories is a foundational work from one of our most cherished literary artists and thinkers. |
