One of the founding fathers of multi-cultural studies, Ishmael Reed
first came to the attention of the literary world as a poet, and
despite success as a novelist, playwright, essayist, and recording
artist, has never ceased to be a poet. He delves into spiritual and
political waters with his own unexpected and uniquely powerful
voice.
"New and Collected Poems, 1966-2006 captures four decades of Reed's
inimitable verse, a visionary journey from Chattanooga to New York,
from Africa to Oakland. In language that is pointed, innovative,
and profound, Reed weaves politics and war with Yoruba and Jazz,
and takes on American culture, from prejudice to Pepsi to George W.
Bush.
In this important and long-awaited volume, one of America's most
esteemed and intrepid poets, whose "Beware Do Not Read This Poem"
has been cited by Gale Research as one of about 20 poems most
frequently studied in literature courses, shows why he has helped
define our cultural forefront from the '60s to today.
