Smoking the Bible

Beschreibung

"These poems reveal the personal story of two brothers--one elegizing the other--and the larger story of a man in exile: exile of geography, culture, and memory. What we experience in this emotionally generous collection is a ... spiritual reckoning that draws on ancient African traditions of belief, and an intellectual vivacity drawing on various wisdom literatures and traditions"--Back cover.
