Aloud: Voices from the Nuyorican Poets Cafe

Compiled by poets who have been at the center of the Nuyorican Poets Cafe in New York City, Aloud showcases the work of the most innovative and accomplished word artists from around America.

"[This] is a fun, wild, and fascinating volume of poems from what Holman calls 'a home for the tradition that has no home but your ear' . . . Aloud is significant in its openness, its verbal power, and the undeniable fact that its performers are changing things without giving a damn how many walls they tear down."
