EVERETT ANDERSON'S CHRISTMAS COMING

by Lucille Clifton ‧ RELEASE DATE: Oct. 18, 1971

The ebullient black six-year-old of Some of the Days of Everett Anderson (1970) meets the holiday season in nine short poems that express conventional Christmas sentiments in an unremarkable form but within the vitalizing context of Everett's particular world up in 14A. The pictures, despite an unseasonal violet background, convey the bouncy and quiet moods of Christmas; the poems are not as fresh as those in the first collection, but the holiday thoughts of Everett Anderson are sure to find an audience.
