The Gorgon Goddess

de Evie Shockley

Series editor David Kellogg asks: "Is it one voice or many? Evie Shockley's debut collection goes rapidly through keys and changes. Public presences are here--Miles Davis, Cicely Tyson, Anita Hill, Rosa Parks--but are caught up and transformed by Shockley's formal, lyric, and dramatic energies. These are poems crowded with life."
