by Nikki Giovanni, Nikki Giovanni (Read by)

Overview

A vinyl edition of Love Poems, written and performed by Nikki Giovanni. Love Poems Vinyl features a white and rose colored record filled with highlights from the recording and includes a full-length digital download of the audiobook.

The poetry of Nikki Giovanni has spurred movements, turned hearts and informed generations. She’s been hailed as a firebrand, a radical, a healer, and a sage; a wise and courageous voice who has spoken out on the sensitive issues, including race and gender, that touch our national consciousness.

From the revolutionary "Seduction" to the tender poem, "Just a Simple Declaration of Love," from the whimsical "I Wrote a Good Omelet" to the elegiac "All Eyez on U," written for Tupac Shakur, these poems embody the fearless passion and spirited wit for which Nikki Giovanni is beloved and revered.

Romantic, bold, and erotic, Love Poems expresses notions of love in ways that are delightfully unexpected. Articulating in sensuous verse what we know only instinctively, Nikki Giovanni once again confirms her place as one of our nation’s most distinguished poets and powerful truth-tellers.
