For poetry readers, but also those interested in racial history, the African diaspora, and the transnational racial dynamics of North America. Genre: Fraser employs dramatic monologue and research into the era's lexicon: he compiled his own dictionary of words, particularly slang, to ensure verisimilitude and authenticity of voice Editorial comps include Rita Dove's Thomas and Beulah, The Voyage of the Sable Venus by Robin Coste-Lewis, the Louisiana poems of Yusef Komunyakaa, and the monologues of Ai. Born in Grenada, Fraser is a dual Grenadian-Canadian citizen. His work has appeared widely in Canadian literary journals as well as in Best Canadian Poetry, and he is a past winner of the CBC Poetry Prize.
