Winner of the American Book Award Features a foreword by Jaqueline Woodson Praise for Crossfire "A remarkable collection from a dynamic and talented writer, whose urgent storytelling and commanding voice feel vital for our times." -Edwidge Danticat "With this astounding new collection of poems, Crossfire, it is evident that Staceyann Chin has come into her raw, sexual, revolutionary, poetic power. These poems are jet fuel from the hot center of the body-from rage, from sorrow, from pure, unmitigated life-force." -Eve Ensler "We've all been waiting for this collection-all of us that know the brilliance, the heartbreaking truth telling, and the magic of Staceyann's cadences. Now all of us who have been lucky enough to have seen her on stage, heard her from the ramparts, can be joined at last by readers in the quiet spaces to properly celebrate this remarkable voice and watch her take her place in American letters." -Walter Mosley
