Synopsis
This collection is a gathering of the saints. Contemporary writers with an ear to the ground, digging on the sense and sound of what all is going down. Plus, a couple of ancestor scribes whose amazing words and clear-eyed vision remain both accurate and relevant long, long after their physical demise. Most ascendant of these is writer, historian, and folklorist Marcus Christian, whose seminal poem "I Am New Orleans," first published in commemoration of the city's 250th birthday in 1968, suffuses the collection. Hence, here is a compendium of views and visions, which collectively map the outlines of what it means to both be and to miss New Orleans. Book jacket., This collection is a gathering of the saints.
