WHITEBOYDOWN
Aleph Press, 2005. Paperback. 8vo. Staple-bound wraps. Minor scuffing to wraps.
Not in OCLC. This is an early poetry chapbook by influential Chicago poet Kevin Coval, published prior to his debut collection, Slingshots. Coval founded the long-running youth poetry slam Louder Than an a Bomb in Chicago in 2001. Later renamed Rooted & Radical Youth Poetry Festival, it remains the largest youth slam in the world. At the time of listing, this bookseller was unable to find any other copies of this title listed for sale online, nor any mentions of it in Coval's bibliographies. A rare find for collectors of Chicago poetry or chapbooks. Very good. Item #7169
