En savoir plus sur le livre
More than 30 acclaimed writers, including diverse voices like Nikki Giovanni, David Omotosho Black, and Natasha Trethewey, reflect on the Black creative spirit in this unique anthology focused on writing. Curated by Black writers, it emphasizes the importance of ethnicity in shaping perspectives and artistic expression. For centuries, Black creators have engaged in oral and written storytelling, but how do they navigate the complexities of authenticity in their work? This anthology addresses such profound questions, offering guidance rather than strict rules and validating the diversity of styles and approaches to craft. Contributors provide insights on various topics, with Pulitzer Prize winner Jericho Brown examining personification in poetry and Natasha Trethewey discussing the decolonization of metaphors. Angela Flournoy sheds light on grief's role in creation, while Nikki Giovanni presents a powerful reflection on language. The collection features new and previously published essays and interviews that inspire and instruct on aspects like poetic form, story plotting, and the creative process. Serving as both a handbook and reference tool, this anthology aims to help Black artists cultivate their creative practices while celebrating the expansive role of Black writers in art, history, and culture.
