Nominee, 2012 NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Literary Work in Poetry

The poems in Nikky Finney's breathtaking new collection Head Off & Split sustain a sensitive and intense dialogue with emblematic figures and events in African American life: from civil rights matriarch Rosa Parks to former secretary of state Condoleezza Rice, from a brazen girl strung out on lightning to a terrified woman abandoned on a rooftop during Hurricane Katrina. Finney's poetic voice is defined by an intimacy that holds a soft yet exacting eye on the erotic, on uncanny political and family events, like her mother's wedding waltz with South Carolina senator Strom Thurmond, and then again on the heartbreaking hilarity of an American president's final State of the Union address.

Artful and intense, Finney's poems ask us to be mindful of what we fraction, fragment, cut off, dice, dishonor, or throw away, powerfully evoking both the lawless and the sublime.

Timeless Luxury and Everyday Elegance
Size: One Size, Color: Dragonfruit
I am absolutely in love with my Coach bag! The quality is exceptional—the leather is soft yet durable, and the stitching is flawless. It feels luxurious without being over the top, and the design is timeless, making it perfect for everyday use or special occasions. The compartments are thoughtfully designed, so it’s easy to stay organized while on the go. Definitely worth every penny—I get compliments on it everywhere I take it!

Beautiful bag BUT no hangtag💔
Size: One Size, Color: Merlot, Size: One Size, Color: Merlot
I was delighted with this bag! It’s my first time ordering Coach from Amazon. I saw it on sale and didn’t think twice. It came very well packaged, just like new. I attached the strap to wear it like shoulder strap and added a charm. 🍒✨ The problem?? It came without the Coach hangtag!! I was totally disappointed. I contacted Amazon of course, and they asked me to return the bag with no option to repurchase it at the same price I got it for. I highly doubt it will go on sale again, so I decided to keep it and managed to find the hangtag on Poshmark.

Beautiful and comfortable Coach aviators!
Color: Shiny Light Gold, Lens Width: 57 Millimeters
Beautiful! I loved how they looked in the virtual try-on and they are even better in person. Aviator sunglasses are my favorite and these take it to the next level. They are classic and never go out of style. The size is perfect. The gradient brown is very nice and provides great sun protection and the frames are beautiful. The Coach logo is stunning. But even better is the comfort. The frame is just the right weight and they are comfortable for long periods. They came nicely packaged in a very nice Coach case. I am very pleased with this purchase.
