I've published a book review of
Kei Miller's,
There is an Anger That Moves, and two poems, "Erzulie's Daughter" and "Poetry Woman," in the latest issue of
The Caribbean Writer.Other highlights in the current volume are a special section on Virgin Islands artists Roy Lawaetz and Maud Pierre-Charles, and an interview with renowned Jamaican writer
Rachel Manley. Additionally, the poetry and fiction components include work by
Opal Palmer Adisa, Arnold Highfield, Tregenza Roach, and Althea Romeo-Mark.
Happy Reading!

Well I'd certainly be interested to read your review of Kei Miller's collection after being so impressed by him at the Book festival! And your poems too of course!
Crafty, I've never heard him read in person. I've only been impressed by his work on paper.
Peace,
Geoffrey
The Caribbean Writer sure sounds like the place to be right now. Two "new" poems by you, and Opal's work. And discovering Kei Miller...
Rethabile, it's one of the best in years--if I must say so myself...
Peace,
Geoffrey
