"Not since Langston Hughes has an African American poet so ably combined the oral and literary traditions of his people to produce a collective poetic portrait of a singular Black man searching for love in a world gone awry." --Douglas Brinkley on Whispers, Secrets and Promises
"Filled with page-turning, lyrical passages that speak to a passion for words...a fascinating examination of a literary life still in progress." --"Times- Picayune" (New Orleans) on "Fathering Words"
"Ethelbert Miller brings an accomplished poet's stunning language to this important memoir, and no one writes more eloquently about the lives--the triumphs and dilemmas--of black American men than he does." --Charles Johnson, author of "Middle Passage" on "Fathering Words"
