Fast Animal by Tim Seibles

pen_oakland_award_smallThe newest collection from one of America’s foremost African-American poets threads the journey from youthful innocence to the whittled-hard awareness of adulthood. Along the way it immerses the reader in palpable moments —the importance of remembering, the complexity of race, and the meaning of true wakefulness

“Crisply comic, disarmingly frank, and aurally bold …”
—Publishers Weekly
