[ Large Image ]	And I Alone Escaped to Tell You Sylvia D. Hamilton 2014 / Poetry / $19.95 9781554471362 / Trade paper / 96 pp The settlement of African peoples in Nova Scotia is a richly layered story encompassing many waves of settlement and diverse circumstances—from captives to ‘freedom runners’ who sailed north from the United States with hopes of establishing a new life. The poems in And I Alone Escaped to Tell You endeavour to give these historical events a human voice, blending documentary material, memory, experience and imagination to evoke the lives of these early Black Nova Scotians and of the generations that followed. This collection is a moving meditation on the place of African-descended people in the Canadian story and on the threads connecting all of us to the African diaspora. Finalist for the 2015 Gerald Lampert Memorial Award for Poetry. Note: stock is low on this item... go ahead and purchase and we will let you know if it is available.
