Images of Kin: New and Selected Poems

"Harper's poetry is not limited by color or attitude. In *Images of Kin*, Harper amazes with his keen sense of political and personal histories, his breadth of expression. This collection fixes Harper as one of the dominant poetic voices of his generation" -- **Chicago Sun-Times** "It is Mr. Harper's achievement to have projected his most difficult and complex insights and feelings through the epical manner, yet at the same time carried us along to identify with him." -- **New York Times Book Review**
