In Montgomery by Gwendolyn Brooks
Composed of three sections, this collection features the final poems of the late poet laureate of Illinois. The first section, In Montgomery, is a verbal description of a visit made by the poet and a highly talented photographer for Ebony Magazine, Moneeta Sleet. This is followed by a section of poetic character sketches. The final section is based upon a well known building located in the Black ghetto of Chicago's south side.
