Lot's Daughter

Chronicles the migration of African Americans from the echoing expanses of Mississippi to the hustle of Chicago life. Chicago-native Opal Moore's poems speak of long-ago ancestors whose presence resonates through time, life, and love. Noted for her graceful wordsmithing, Moore tells of the transgressions of transplantation with heart-wrenching honesty and skill.
