Tarnish and Masquerade
 

Tarnish and Masquerade by Roger Bonair-Agard

"These sunwashed revelations -- this lilting, uproarious, precise gospel -- brings so much to the table that the reader is nearly overwhelmed. Roger Bonair-Agard is his own revolution, a deft purveyor of unflinching politics, stark sensuality and the relentless drum of the island home that beckons from every page. There is simply no resisting these stanzas, absolutely no way to turn away from what they will do to you." -- Patricia Smith

Paperback book: $12.00 (CD included).
