These narrative poems tell the day-to-day lives of Black New Orleans?rare magic inside the culture. Drenched in local history and color, these poems have a Black sensibility that reaches beyond boundaries, with folk sayings turned into polished verse. From Black talk to verse forms, Saloy never loses sight of the African American cultural roots of her community.
