| Summary |
Fifty-four poems, all in different voices, written by one outstanding author. Residents of a fictional Harlem community, from motorman to teacher, from party girl to live-in maid, to jazz artist, a deacon, students, veterans and more- all embodied by thirteen remarkable narrators. Original musical recordings from the likes of Duke Ellington, Count Basie and Thelonious Monk. Each distinctive memory, reflection, thought or aspiration is evocatively presented in this stunning and memorable tribute to be a beloved time and place. A Live Oak Media audio production. |
