Felon : poems / Reginald Dwayne Betts. by Betts, Reginald Dwayne, 1980- author. New York, NY : W. W. Norton & Company, 2020 Subjects African Americans -- Effect of imprisonment on -- Poetry. ISBN:  0393542033 9780393542035 (paperback) : Description:  x, 96 pages ; 21 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  In fierce, agile poems, Felon tells the story of the effects of incarceration--canvassing a wide range of emotions and experiences through homelessness, underemployment, love, drug abuse, domestic violence, fatherhood, and grace--and, in doing so, creates a travelogue for an imagined life. Reginald Dwayne Betts confronts the funk of post-incarceration existence in traditional and newfound forms, from revolutionary found poems created by redacting court documents to the astonishing crown of sonnets that serves as the volume's radiant conclusion. Awards:  NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work--Poetry, 2020.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Language, Literature & History 811.6 Be Checked In Add Copy to MyList
