Book excerpt: "Urban Rage in Bronzeville divulges through the discourse of literary critics, social commentators, other artist and peers and even Brooks herself--in her own words--the impact of Gwendolyn Brooks on the community at home and at large. It reveals the power of this highly celebrated and highly provocative pivotal poet-artist to effect changes in perspective on the Black and White experience in America. Urban Rage in Bronzeville provides stark, honest looks at the sometimes bitter brutally harsh realities of life in this nation for Blacks by time or geography through a profound use of contrastingly beautiful manipulations of language and literary stylings"--Publisher's description.
