The Place For Books By Black Authors
Book Of The Month
We have been fans of Jackie's work for a long time, so we are delighted to to have her book as our book of the month. In her new collection Kay brings to life a bunch of big names, digging deeper into their stories than you might expect. Fanny Eaton, the Jamaican model who shook up the Pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood, Paul Robeson, Angela Davis, and poet Audre Lorde. And then there's the "what-if" poem about Rabbie Burns and a turn he might've taken toward the slave trade.
May Day by Jackie Kay
