Descrizione When I Waked, I Cried to Dream Again
In this astonishing volume of poems and lyric prose, Whiting Award-winner A. Van Jordan draws comparisons to Black characters in Shakespearean plays-Caliban and Sycorax from?The Tempest, Aaron the Moor from?Titus Andronicus, and the eponymous antihero of?Othello-to mourn the deaths of Black people, particularly Black children, at the hands of police officers. What do these characters, and the ways they are defined by the white figures who surround them, have in common with Tamir Rice, Trayvon Martin, and other Black people killed in the twenty-first century?
