The poetry of Nikki Giovanni has spurred social justice movements
and inspired songs, turned hearts and informed generations about
the reality of life--especially Black life--in America. One of the
foremost African-American writers and activists of her generation,
she has been hailed as a healer and a sage, a powerful voice on
issues of race, equality, violence, and discrimination. With
Chasing Utopia, Giovanni demands that the prosaic--flowers, food,
birdsong, winter--be seen as poetic, and reaffirms once again why
she is as energetic, "remarkable" (Gwendolyn Brooks), "wonderful"
(Marian Wright Edelman),"outspoken, prolific, energetic" (New York
Times), and relevant as ever. "This slim volume delights on every
page. There are stories, imaginings, whimsy, and startling images
which prove the poet's power and her command of language . . .
Anyone with a love of language will be delighted with this book and
the continuing publication of America's treasured poet."--San
