Razzle Dazzle traces the evolution of Jackson's transformative imagination and fierce music through five acclaimed volumes: his Cave Canem Poetry Prize-winning debut, Leaving Saturn (2002), which captures the spirit of resilience in the Philadelphia neighborhoods of the poet's youth; Hoops (2006), which finds transcendence in the solemn marvels of ordinary lives; Holding Company (2010), which shifts away from narrative to explore the seductive force of art, literature, and music; Roll Deep (2015), which addresses human intimacy, war, and the spirit of aesthetic travel; and his vulnerable, philosophical latest, The Absurd Man (2020). The volume opens with over three dozen new poems that erupt into full-throated song in the face of indignity and invite us into a passionate experience of the world. 941 $a 5 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240717024034.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20240409013039.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240402011819.0 952 $l SAPG074 $d 20240224010804.0 952 $l TCPG826 $d 20231005010406.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=868C5D20634411EE8577B53D35ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
