Song of Thieves delves into issues of racial identity and politics, the immigrant experience, and the search for "home" and family histories. In this follow-up to her award-winning debut collection, The Water Between Us, Shara McCallum artfully draws from the language and imagery of her Caribbean background to play a haunting and soulful tune.
Generous with grief and sweetness.... Simplicity isn't easy and honesty is harder, but McCallum's verse and voice are completely honest. These are poems you cannot turn down.-Carol Frost; ""In these spare, sensuous, and lyrical poems, McCallum seeks to explore love and loss by navigating the bridge which joins the one to the other.""-Maurya Simon; ""Opens a whole new world.... Reading this book is testament to the sustaining fire of poetry.""-Ray Gonzalez
