Poetry. African & African American Studies. These poems challenge the notion of "home" for persons of African descent born outside the continent. Closely attentive to form and content, narrative and emotion, history and the contemporary, they tell stories that are little known--the lives of persons of African descent at different periods in the Americas. It is Smith's voice that counts here, and the techniques he uses, akin to those of jazz.
