Dear Continuum: Letters to a Poet Crafting Liberation - Paperback

by Mariahadessa Ekere Tallie (Author)

"These (are) letters of wisdom, compassion, and understanding deeply rooted in the day to day practice of "walking the walk"... the book made me feel as though I'd just heard Amiri Baraka or Sonia Sanchez "blow" a new sound/solo on their Soul-instruments, and regretted that I hadn't done so. Tallie's knowledge, experience and deep insight caused me to wish that as a young, '60s poet, I'd had the good fortune to receive such a spiritual and literary gift. 
Yes, our elders spoke to us, but few, if any, wrote to our Generation with such compassionate understanding."
