An electric inquiry into faith, race, and poverty in America by a poet of “remarkable urgency and empathy" (Publishers Weekly).This collection, winner of the 2014 Lexi Rudnitsky Editor’s Choice Award, further establishes Shane McCrae as an indispensible poetic voice. With his unmistakable cadences, he probes insistently yet big-heartedly into some paradoxes of belief and righteousness, confronting God from the quagmire of his upbringing: half-Black and raised by White supremacists. | The Animal Too Big To Kill by Shane Mccrae, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
