Description of Fast Fat Girls in Pink Hot Pants
""Fast Fat Girls In Pink Hot Pants" is a collection of poems whose haughty testimonials will light up your head with nappy wisdom and forbidden light about race, family, rebirths, and forgiveness, and just might help you chase away some of your own demons."
—Major Jackson, author of "Hoops"
"These poems… live, with flagrant finesse, in the space between those raced (and erased) histories that have been inadequately documented and those that must be observed, overheard, passed down and reinterpreted with attitude. They sing as if plucked clean from several thorny, dissonant layers of… exceptionally American delusion and a few brusque debates with critical anthropology."
—Greg Tate, author of "Flyboy in the Buttermilk"
