Shane Book: All Black Everything, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

"Shane Book's All Black Everything lyrics shine with work and the freedom of young people. Full of menace and humor, objects of warfare and luxury consumption are transformed with his blade of caustic irony against the world-wide nihilism of cash payments, guns, and disease. In their syncopated, slangy, and musically enjambed flow of the digital world, a poet known for singular collections has produced his most inventive and uncompromising volume yet. The political sublime of Caribbean poetics ebb and flood in this contagious new voice of borrowings, hijacking the trap house. An original collection, daring to assume the voice of the system and its death drives, having fun, mixing it up, throwing hands, too. If old pirates rob I, then Shane Book has stolen back something from them. All Black Everything is redemption song"--
