Quilting: Poems 1987-1990 (American Poets Continuum Series, Vol. 21)
by Lucille Clifton

Brilliantly honed language, sharp rhythms and striking syntax empower Lucille Clifton’s personal and artistic odyssey. Hers is poetry of birth, death, children, community, history, sexuality and spirituality, and she addresses these themes with passion, humor, anger and spiritual awe.
