Description: Mercurochrome: New Poems by Wanda ColemanMercurochrome is one of Coleman’s most powerful collections. With humor, anger, and sorrow, she captures the deeply personal and societal forces of a Black working woman and mother, always behind in rent, always writing. She captured her world and its truths with beauty, harshness, clarity, and power. Through it all, there is passionate love and sexuality, humor and drama ― her work is full of startling confession and breathtaking power.A self-made writer from Black Los Angeles who lived every day with racism, poverty, violence. The triumph is in words that endure. “Having Lost My Son, I Confront the Wreckage.” “The Language Beneath the Language.” “They Will Not Be Poets.” “Dreams Without Means.” “American Sonnets.” This is vintage Coleman, the poet of the people.Softcover / Black Sparrow Press / 2001 / Very Good Condition
