The full-length debut from francine j. harris, allegiance is about Detroit, sort of. Although many of the poems are inspired by and dwell in the spaces of the city, this collection does not revel in any of the cliche? cultural tropes normally associated with Detroit. Instead, these poems artfully explore life in a city where order coexists with chaos and much is lost in social and physical breakdown. Narrative poems on the hazards, betrayals, and annoyances of city life mix with impressionistic poems that evoke the natural world, as harris grapples with issues of beauty and horror, loyalty and individuality, and memory and loss on Detroit's complicated canvas. In twelve sections, harris introduces readers to loungers and bystanders, prisoners' wives, poets pictured on book jackets, Caravaggio's Jesus, and city priests. She leads readers past the lone house on the block that cannot be walked down, through layers of discarded objects in the high school yard, and into various classrooms, bars, and living rooms. Shorter poems highlight the persistence of nature-in water, weeds, orchids, begonias, insects, pigeons, and pheasants. Some poems convey a sense of the underbelly, desire, and disgust while others treat issues of religion, both in institutional settings and personal prayers. In her honest but unsentimental voice, harris layers personal history and rich details to explore how our surroundings shape our selves and what allegiance we owe them when they have turned almost everything to ashes. Throughout allegiance, harris presents herself as an extraordinarily perceptive poet with a compelling and original voice. Poetry lovers will appreciate this exciting debut collection. 410 0$aMade in Michigan writers series. 606 $aAmerican poetry$y20th century 615 0$aAmerican poetry 676 $a811/.6 700 $aHarris$b Francine J$01812372 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910962125703321 996 $aAllegiance$94364769 997 $aUNINA LEADER 02206oam 2200517I 450 001 9910164031803321 005 20240505195714.0 010 $a1-315-27777-8 010 $a1-315-27775-1 010 $a1-315-27776-X 024 7 $a10.4324/9781315277776 035 $a(CKB)3710000001056263 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4803595 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4803329 035 $a(OCoLC)972478197 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000001056263 100 $a20180706d2017 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aPatterns of strategy /$fPatrick Hoverstadt and Lucy Loh 205 $a1st ed. 210 1$aLondon ;$aNew York, N.Y. :$cRoutledge,$d2017. 215 $a1 online resource (447 pages) $cillustrations 300 $a"A Gower Book"--Cover. 311 08$a1-138-24267-5 311 08$a1-138-24266-7 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $apt. 1.
