Elegguas

"For nearly half a century, Kamau Brathwaite has been doing nothing short of rewriting the relationship between Africa and the aging ǹew world'--one exquisite and haunting syllable at a time. Elegguas, his newest book, is a tidalectic wave of remembrance and remonstrance. It is, as well, one of Brathwaite's most compassionate songs."--Mark Nowak, author of coal Mountain Elementary
