Eve L. Ewing

Electric Arches is an imaginative exploration of black girlhood and womanhood through poetry, visual art, and narrative prose. Blending stark realism with the fantastical, Ewing takes us from the streets of Chicago to an alien arrival in an unspecified future, deftly navigating boundaries of space, time, and reality with delight and flexibility.

I can't say that I identify with Electric Arches, but it gives me a vibrant and visceral glimpse into lives unlike my own. This is such a cutting collection about racial experience, and it educates as well as exists as truly excellent poetry.
