Good Sense & the Faithless
This book is a bold exploration of powerful themes: from everyday acts of love and hate in the ghetto to gestures of political and sexual survival in a postmodern no-woman's-land. Wanda Coleman calls these poems tough-tongued sagas. . . frank, raw, courageous, and sincere. Ruben Martinez, in L.A. Weekly, says, Michelle T. Clinton has written an ode to the soul of woman and man, of gay and straight, of black & brown & yellow & white-to the universal strengths and frailties of humanness.

A Survivor From The L.A. Wars
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 27 years ago
The electrifying sexual imagery from one who has survived the gender wars ignites the reader's imagination and suggests ways of healing. This is both disturbing and enlightening. Although now residing in Northern California, Michelle T. Clinton is a survivor of the Los Angeles Wars, giving countless readings at Beyond Baroque as the Queen of the Los Angeles Poetry Scene. This work is a warning to those who revel in their complacency, and is a call to arms for those who dare. Profound. Moving. A historical document from a soul survivor. She is Los Angeles' gift to Northern California...and the world
