Les Matins JazzUn classique de la littérature africaine-américaine à mettre dans la valise des vacances" Personne, plus jamais, n’écrira de la même façon sur les femmes noires après ce roman."
C'est Toni Morrison qui a édité en 1975, le roman Corregidora, de Gayl Jones, devenu aussitôt un classique de la littérature américaine.

She listen to a little of that D’Angelo music, some love’s melody, sophisticated-type rap, which she say sounds more like real music, like intelligent music, than some of that other music, then she cuts the radio off ––Gayl Jones, The Healing
Like the narrator in Gayl Jones’ The Healing, this week’s installment of Poetism focuses on and around “black music,” that is music which conveys a specific feeling of a sensation or time without explaining anything.

Building on Michelle Wright’s ideas about dislocation from time and space as constitutive to being Black in America, as well as on W. E. B.
