ISBN: 9780061726453.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn her legendary career, artist and activist Nikki\nGiovanni has established herself as a writer who can entertain and challenge,\nand a voice for social justice who can inform and inspire in times of\nnational crisis. Controversial, revolutionary, ethereal, or illuminating, her\npoems about race, Black lives, violence, gender, and family move readers of\nall ages and backgrounds.\n\nWith\nBICYCLES, she’s collected poems that serve as a companion to her 1997 LOVE\nPOEMS. An instant classic, that book--romantic, bold, and erotic--expressed\nnotions of love in ways that were delightfully unexpected. In the years that\nfollowed, Giovanni experienced losses both public and private. A mother’s\npassing, a sister’s, too. A massacre on the campus at which she teaches. And\njust when it seemed life was spinning out of control, Giovanni rediscovered\nlove--what she calls the antidote. Here romantic love--and all its\nmanifestations, the physical touch, the emotional pull, the hungry heart--is\ndistilled as never before by one of our most talented poets. In a time of\nnational crisis or personal crisis, this is a collection that will open minds\nand change hearts as only the best art can.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"William Morrow","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44426596024373,"sku":"ByrdShop_0061726451","price":26.84,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780061726453_ec3d9e20-4b30-40f8-bb15-da16ada9b520.jpg?v=1778680577","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/bicycles-love-poems-9780061726453","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
