Inhaltsangabe

Derrick Harriell's Stripper in Wonderland is a fast-paced collection that draws from hip-hop culture and music. Dark and at times graphic, this collection examines the heartbreak of racism and violence as well as the complexities of Islam and childbirth. Musical lyrics and references to the 1970s era of funk bands infuse this existential body of work with a sense of delight that's captivating and inspiring.
