Poetry. African American Studies. "These poems are at once a road trip of a new type and a tour of the little-known icons of our urban landscape, where brand-name objects and what might be
called 'literary' symbols get all mixed together in these verses that consider space, love and lovers, small rooms, and even smaller cars. In ADVENTURES OF PI, Williams holds a mirror up to our
own world, where everyday life moves along 'like traffic / accidents observed from helicopters // that fail to finger the finger / that / popped / up / just before the pile-up.'"��eoffrey
