  Colors of Nature: Culture, Identity, and the Natural World , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 746min

  From African American to Asian American, indigenous to immigrant, "multiracial" to "mixedblood," the diversity of cultures in this world is matched only by the diversity of stories explaining our cultural origins: stories of creation and destruction, displacement and heartbreak, hope and mystery. With writing from Jamaica Kincaid on the fallacies of national myths, Yusef Komunyakaa connects the toxic legacy of his hometown, Bogalusa, LA, to a blind faith in capitalism, and bell hooks relating the quashing of multiculturalism to the destruction of nature that is considered "unpredictable" - amongst more than 35 other examinations of the relationship between culture and nature - this collection points toward the trouble of ignoring our cultural heritage, but also reveals how opening our eyes and our minds might provide a more livable future. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Courtney Patterson, Marium Khalid, Neal Ghant, Suehyla El'Attar, Janina Edwards. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/adbl/015216/bk_adbl_015216_sample.mp3.

• Fortune

  Only someone who has a deep capacity to love and enjoy the music of life could have written these wonderful, troubling poems. There's a tenderness at the core of Fortune, where the commonplace becomes atypical and fantastical, a nd eazch poem possesses a voice that summons and reveals. Joseph Millar is a poet we can believe.--Yusuf Komunyakaa, winner of the 1994 Pulitzer Prize for poetry "If you want the real news of how America lives, of what it's like to be here with us, Millar will tell you with exactitude and delicacy in poems like none you've read before. He know a country, an America, that's been here all along waiting for its voice. It's time we listened."--Philip Levine, Ploughshares
