“Lucy Negro is a seat at the table, is my knowing that he knew it all after / all, is the black aesthetic writ large across a whitewashed Riverside brick.” —from poem “Black Luce”

I had the privilege of attending a performance of “Lucy Negro, Redux: The Ballet” which was followed by a Q&A with the artists. To say this is boundary-bending genius is an understatement. I don’t understand all of it - I’m not a regular consumer of either poetry or ballet - but what I do understand is powerful, and I will keep rereading to understand the rest. Keep your eyes out for Caroline Randall Williams. She is the real deal.

The poetry is only a part of this book, the research is engaging and the story the two weave is fascinating.
