Poems imagine the life and times of Phillis Wheatley PetersNAACP Image Award Winner for Outstanding Literary Work for Poetry2020 National Book Award for Poetry, Longlist2020 LA Times Book Award FinalistIn 1773, a young, African American woman named Phillis Wheatley Peters published a book of poetry that challenged Western prejudices about African and female intellectual capabilities. Based on fifteen years of archival research,The Age of Phillis, by awardwinning writer Honore Fanonne Jeffers, imagines the life and times of Wheatley: her childhood in the Gambia, West Africa, her life with her white American owners, her friendship with Obour Tanner, and her marriage to the enigmatic John Peters. Woven throughout are poems about Wheatley's 'age'the era that encompassed political, philosophical, and religious upheaval, as well as the transatlantic slave trade. For the first time in verse, Wheatley's relationship to black people and their individual 'mercies' is foregrounded, and here we see her as not simply a racial or literary symbol, but a human being who lived and loved while making her indelible mark on history.mothering #1Yaay, Someplace in the Gambia, c. 1753afterthe afterbirthis deliveredthe mother stopsholding her breaththe midwife giveswhat came beforeher justwashed painher insanity painan undeserved paina Godgiven painoh oh oh paindrumtalking painwitnessing painAllaha mother offersYou this giftprays You findit acceptableher living painher creature painher prettylittlebabypain
