Len Lawson's Chime is the rough melody reverberating from the whirlwind of these times and past times touching the singular and collective Black body. While the poems have a broad preoccupation with mortality and trauma, they are ultimately life-affirming. This collection reminds us that the grief and anxiety in the Black community are only recognition that what is far too often, too brutally and too unjustly lost is substantial, important and invaluable. Here are words that you need to read, that we all do.
