Filled with sounds from her childhood in Washington, DC, the riffs of jazz musicians, and bluesy incantations, Living as a Lesbian sings like a marimba, whispering “ i am, i am in love with you.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLiving as a Lesbian chronicles Clarke’ s years of literary and political activism with anger, passion, and determination. Clarke mourns the death of Kimako Baraka (“ sister of famous artist brother” ), celebrates the life of Indira Gandhi, and chronicles all kinds of disasters— natural and human-made. The world is large in Living as a Lesbian but also personal and intimate. These poems are closely observed and finely wrought, with Clarke’ s characteristic charm and wit shining throughout.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn 1986, Living as a Lesbian captured the vitality and volatility of the lesbian world; today, in a world both changed and unchanged, Clarke’ s poems continue to illuminate our lives and make new meanings for Living as a Lesbian.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Archimedes' Loft - Books \u0026 More, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49127693811989,"sku":"9781938334061","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/0399\/3621\/files\/9781938334061.jpg?v=1755346570","url":"https:\/\/archimedesloft.com\/products\/living-as-a-lesbian-sapphic-classic","provider":"Archimedes' Loft - Books \u0026 More, LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
