"One of the great blessings of Bernard Clay's poetry is the clear, unflinching black voice. Clay writes from that black-centered way of seeing in this ode to Black Louisville. Clay is the urban Affrilachian who is rooted in the silt and river of 'the lilac and the dogwood and the pear and the redbud.' The greens of his grandmother's garden, the plastic on the good couch, the rides on TARC, Clay is bound to this Kentucky life both city and country. English Lit is a rich debut collection which is certain to become a classic of Kentucky literature."--Kelly Norman Ellis, author of Tougaloo Blues and founding member of The Affrilachian Poets, One of the great blessings of Bernard Clay's poetry is the clear, unflinching black voice.

Crafted with a Black farmer's heart, the poems in English Lit blast off from the West End (the best end) into a brave new world.

Clay artfully brings to life the African American Appalachian - Affrilachian - experience with the tenacity of bluegrass busting up through potholed pavement and the warmth and beauty of a smooth blue aster blooming in the Appalachian sunshine."-- Southern Review of Books, "Here's our Affrilachian progeny's first book.

E. Lyons, LEO Weekly, "There is no other poet living or dead that I can say this about, but I've been waiting on a book from Bernard Clay for more than twenty years.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
