Dancing on Main Street

By Lorenzo Thomas

Scintillating, cinematic poems synthesize the irony, absurdity, and passions of American life.

A major figure in the Black Arts Movement and a founding member of the Umbra workshop, Lorenzo Thomas is one of the most heralded authors of his generation. Dancing on Main Street, Thomas's long-awaited collection spanning many decades of his career, blends traditional lyricism with a surrealist's touch and a realist's eye. Together, these poems form a cinematic look at the obsessions, pleasures, trials, and tribulations of life on Main Street.
