In trailblazing poet, essayist, teacher and activist June Jordan's
poems, love is a vision of revolutionary solidarity, crossing
borders both emotional and literal with an outstretched hand.
Haruko traces the faltering arc of a passionate love affair with
another woman while Love Poems encompasses relationships with men
and women, political resistance, the need for self-care in a
demanding, uncaring world and apocalyptic visions of the eruption
of Mount Vesuvius that destroyed Pompeii and Herculaneum. A
contemporary of Alice Walker, Toni Morrison and Audre Lorde, June
Jordan's spectacular poetry remains profoundly politically potent,
lyrically inventive and breathtakingly romantic. First published in
1994, Haruko/ Love Poems is a vitally important modern classic.
