Alice Walker has been writing poetry since the summer of 1965, when she travelled to East Africa and began the collection Once while sitting beneath a tree facing Mount Kenya.
Encompassing the collections Once, Revolutionary Petunias & Other Poems, Good Night Willie Lee I'll See You In The Morning, and Horses Make a Landscape LookMore Beautiful as well as other poems, this is a wonderful, surprising, entertaining collection that offers a historical perspective onthe evolution of both the poetry itself and the political and spiritual inspiration behind it.
