Meadowland Take My Hand
“Brooklyn has Whitman, Manhattan has O’Hara, Harlem has Hughes, and with this acutely visual and uniquely rhythmic mapping of geographical memory, Pamela Hughes reaffirms her permanent appointment as poet laureate of the New Jersey Meadowlands and the unexplored territories therein and there out. What a great book of poems.” —PAUL BEATTY, author of The Sellout, winner of The Man Booker Prize.
****
“Pamela Hughes’ has given us a book of celebration, of protest, of concern and grief for the way that we are ruining our world. She captures in this collection: beauty longing and love for the land, the earth. This is a necessary book, a book we all should read–one that we keep on our bedside tables to remind us of what’s important.”– MARIA MAZZIOTTI GILLAN, American Book Award winner
