As a fan of the novel and short story forms, I have to say that these thin volumes of poetry usually leave me confused and unmoved. Is that bad? There have been a few exceptions, of course, and this book is one of those few that really resonated. It was Lucinda Roy's first volume of poetry. It was followed by another book of poems, 'The Humming Birds' (1995), and two novels, ' Lady Moses' (1998), and 'Hotel Alleluia' (2000). Roy was born in England of a Jamaican father and English mother, and she ended up in the U.S. on the faculty of Virginia Tech, where she was in April of 2007. She became a prominent person in the aftermath of the Virginia Tech massacre, and wrote a book about those terrible events, remaining on the forefront of the gun control debate ever since. This book contains an introduction by fellow Virginia Tech faculty member, and celebrated poet and civil rights voice, Nikki Giovanni (a finalist for the National Book Award, and a Caldecott Honors Book mention for her picture book on Rosa Parks). The title poem of this collection is kept back until the final page of the book, and boy oh boy, this combination of words would be chilling and effective under any circumstances. But given what the writer of these lines went through 19 years later, they are prophetic in the extreme. "There is no sleep more dangerous than forgetting." It's a powerful line in a powerful poem in a powerful volume of verse. Signed by the poet on the title page. Textblock is a little browned, as usual with this paper, otherwise a fine signed copy in fine dust jacket. Uncommon.
