Inhaltsangabe

<div><div><div>In her third book of poems, Honor&#233;e Fanonne Jeffers expresses her familiarity with the actual and imaginary spaces that the American South occupies in our cultural lexicon. Her two earlier books of poetry, <i>The Gospel of Barbecue</i> and <i>Outlandish Blues,</i> use the blues poetic to explore notions of history and trauma. Now, in <i>Red Clay Suite</i>, Jeffers<i></i>approaches the southern landscape as utopia and dystopia&#8212;a crossroads of race, gender, and blood. These poems signal the ending movement of her crossroads blues and complete the last four &#8220;bars&#8221; of a blues song, resting on the final, and essential, note of resolution and reconciliation. </div></div></div>
