Summary
A sophisticated and diverse collection of poetry from the renowned novelist, essayist, and literary and social critic weaves together intellect and emotion with the influences of folk wisdom, jazz, American art, and the Gospel and gospel music.
(view table of contents)Amazon.com description: Product Description: In Conjugations and Reiterations Albert Murray, one of the premier literary men of our time, gives us his first collection of poetry. Wide ranging and informed by his singular intelligence and sensibility, these poems are extraordinary for their keen folk wisdom and striking lyricism, partaking of the idioms of blues and jazz. The vicissitudes of American life, the improvisatory nature of American art, the profundities of the Gospel and of gospel musicâthese are but a few of the concerns in Murrayâs poetic achievement.
Conjugations and Reiterations stands in ringing confirmation of The New Yorkerâs celebration of Albert Murray as a writer âpossessed of the poetâs language, the novelistâs sensibility, the essayistâs clarity, the jazzmanâs imagination, and the gospel singerâs depth of feeling.â
