The Tradition

4.27 (7,096 ratings by Goodreads)

English

By (author): Jericho Brown

WINNER OF THE PULITZER PRIZE FOR POETRY

The Tradition by Jericho Brown, is a cutting and necessary collection, relentless in its quest for survival while revelling in a celebration of contradiction.

A Poetry Book Society Choice

'To read Jericho Brown's poems is to encounter devastating genius.' Claudia Rankine

Jericho Browns daring poetry collection The Tradition details the normalization of evil and its history at the intersection of the past and the personal. Browns poetic concerns are both broad and intimate, and at their very core a distillation of the incredibly human: What is safety? Who is this nation? Where does freedom truly lie? Poems of fatherhood, legacy, blackness, queerness, worship, and trauma are propelled into stunning clarity by Browns mastery, and his invention of the duplex a combination of the sonnet, the ghazal, and the blues testament to his formal skill.
