Description
Jericho Brown's poetry collection The Tradition explores the complex relationships between past and present, examining what it means to be safe, part of a nation, and free. Through poems that grapple with fatherhood, legacy, blackness, queerness, worship, and trauma, Brown reveals the human experience in all its complexity. Brown's innovative form, known as the duplex, brings together elements of sonnet, ghazal, and blues to create a unique poetic voice. This collection is both a powerful exploration of survival and a celebration of contradiction, showcasing Brown's mastery of language and form. With The Tradition, Jericho Brown offers a necessary and cutting work that challenges readers to confront the complexities of identity, community, and belonging.
