G. Winston James skillfully chronicles new times in black and gay history. The Damaged Good is one of the bravest, most authentic collections of poetry in years.
"…delivered with the intentionality and intensity of writers like
Nikki Giovanni and Essex Hemphill. This collection is made of stuff
the Dewey Decimal System was created to find."
Borris Powell, Activist/Educator
Gay Men of African Descent, Inc.
"What an awesome read! At times painful/upsetting. Brilliant!!"
Cheryl Boyce Taylor, Author
Convincing the Body (Vintage Entity Press)
"It is dangerous for a poet to have loved so much and to have
remembered it all. Wonder what names, what dead will the paper cut of
The Damaged Good bleed."
Marvin K. White, Author
