Black Life

Dorothea Lasky

From Shelf: poetry

Infused with dark, tumultuous, and urgent feeling--emotion recollected not in tranquility, but in intensity.

You are born and it is to a black life Full of abuse and strange things ...In her brazen second collection, Dorothea Lasky cries out beyond prophecy and confession, through to an even more powerful empathy. On the verge of becoming pure substance and sensation, Black Life is emotion recollected not in tranquility, but in radically affirming intensity. I leave and I am a black life ...And I want to Be what you made me to be Dorothea Lasky is the author of three collections of poetry. Educated at the University of Massachusetts, Washington University, and Harvard University, she currently teaches at Columbia University.
