Descriere magazin:
Boldly lyrical and fiercely honest,
Mahogany L.
Browne\'s
Chrome Valley offers an intricate portrait of Black womanhood in America. We praise their names / & the hands that write / Praise the mouth that speaks, she writes in tribute to those who came before her.
Browne captures a quintessential girlhood through the pleasures and pangs of young love: the thrill of skating hip to hip at the roller rink, the heat of holding hands in the dark, and, sometimes, the sting of a palm across the cheek. Friendship, too, comes with its own complex yearnings: you ain\'t had freedom / \'til you climb on bus 62 / & head to the closest mall / for a good seat at the girl fight. Reflections of
Browne\'s mother, Redbone, bolster the collection with moments of unwavering strength: give me my mother\'s bone structure / & her gap tooth slaughter / give me her spine--Redbone got a spine for the world. Other moments explore the inherent anxieties shared among Black mothers, rhythmically intoning names like the tolling of a church bell: Because Kadiatou Diallo / Because Sybrina Fulton / Because Valeria Bell / Because Mamie Till. The characters in
Chrome Valley grapple with the legacies of inherited trauma but also revel in the beauty of the undaunted self-determination passed down from Black woman to Black woman. Transcendent and grounded, funny and furious,
Chrome Valley brings depth to a movement, solidifying
Mahogany L. Browne as one of the most significant poetic voices of our time.
