In supreme night, the troubles of double consciousness and anti-Black violence recede into the temporary haven of night.

In supreme night, the troubles of double consciousness and anti-Black violence recede into the temporary haven of night. In poet Keith Donnell Jr.'s imagination, the cover of darkness, both familiar and mysterious, is transcendent. Here, oppressed peoples may find the power to live beyond the social and legal limitations imposed in daylight. These nights are not free of horror and tragedy, nor are they free of love, humor, anger or regret. The supreme night envelopes all that memory preserves, bends, and fabricates. The collection's micro-narratives, lyrics, monologues, and historical sources twist, bend, and cycle through, coalescing to memorialize the legacy of Black life in America. Both unique and ambitious in scope, humorous and heartbreaking, supreme night is a fractured song of witness, a romance with the veil. Its vibrant language and varied themes subvert expectations to celebrate the power of dissemblance, and the poet as keeper of knowledge and rogue histories.
