Be Holding : A Poem, Paperback / softback Book

Be Holding : A Poem Paperback / softback

Part of the Pitt Poetry Series series

Paperback / softback

Description

Winner of PEN America Jean Stein AwardThrough a kind of lyric research, or lyric meditation, Be Holding connects Dr. J's famously impossible move from the 1980 NBA Finals against the Los Angeles Lakers to pick-up basketball and the flying Igbo and the Middle Passage, to photography and surveillance and state violence, to music and personal histories of flight and familial love. Be Holding wonders how the imagination, or how our looking, might make us, or bring us, closer to each other.

How our looking might make us reach for each other. And might make us be reaching for each other. And how that reaching might be something like joy.
