Descrição do Produto
''A deeply personal collection... and provocative and moving meditation on friendship, sex and blackness,'' Guardian
''In its cutting compassion, Homie is as much a celebration of loved ones'' lives as it is a lament for their loss, equally a war cry for kinship and the burial dirge after the battle'' Amanda Gorman
A mighty anthem about the saving grace of friendship, Danez Smith''s highly anticipated collection Homie is rooted in their search for joy and intimacy in a time where both are scarce. In poems of rare power and generosity, Smith acknowledges that in a country overrun by violence, xenophobia and disparity, and in a body defined by race, queerness, and diagnosis, it can be hard to survive, even harder to remember reasons for living. But then the phone lights up, or a shout comes up to the window, and family - blood and chosen - arrives with just the right food and some redemption.
Part friendship diary, part bright elegy, part war cry, Homie is written for friends: for Danez''s friends, for yours.
''This is a book full of the turbulence of thought and desire, piloted by a writer who never loses their way'' New York Times
