520    "This new collection presents James Baldwin the poet, 
       including all nineteen poems from Jimmy's Blues, as well 
       as all the poems from a limited-edition volume called 
       Gypsy, of which only 325 copies were ever printed and 
       which was in production at the time of his death. Known 
       for his relentless honesty and startlingly prophetic 
       insights on issues of race, gender, class, and poverty, 
       Baldwin is just as enlightening and bold in his poetry as 
       in his famous novels and essays. The poems range from the 
       extended dramatic narratives of 'Staggerlee wonders' and 
       'Gypsy' to the lyrical beauty of 'Some days, ' which has 
       been set to music and interpreted by such acclaimed 
       artists as Audra McDonald. Nikky Finney's introductory 
       essay reveals the importance, relevance, and rich rewards 
       of these little-known works"--Jacket.
