Summary of The Spoken Word Revolution (PB) with Audio CD
?A dynamic and clarifying volume chock-full of fresh and informative commentary...and an exciting array of knock-out poems.?-Booklist Starred Review
?Accompanied by a terrific CD that showcases the great variety of styles performance poetry embraces, from the purest of recitations to seductive musical presentations, this dynamic anthology embodies the thrilling and mutually beneficial rapprochement between the traditionalists and the slammers, something that seemed about as likely 10 years ago as that proverbial cold day in hell.?

This defining collection of spoken word poetry captures today?s electrifying words and voices, in text and immediately live on one audio CD.
