Peregrinations is a dance celebrating the everyday ordinariness of our collective meandering. These poems remind the reader that we are all wayfarers inside our own odysseys.
Ahvid Harris is intentionally abstract in his poetic offerings, using his own poetic development freely while excavating the intersections of personal, social, and cultural history. This writer believes in life as the source of his poems and not the other way around.
Jaki Shelton Green
North Carolina Poet Laureate
'In Peregrinations, Ahvid Harris delivers exactly what is promised by the title, a journey, “far reaching meanderings,” that subvert the expectations of language and book-making in delightful ways. There is a sense that as readers, we are guided by a benevolent benefactor, a sentient verse, whose intent is to “propel [us] to when we were a vigorous society.” --- Junious Ward, Charlotte’s Poet Laureate and author of Composition'
'Peregrinations' is a collection of poetry from poet Ahvid - that redefines modern verse. Strongly tied to tradition, the works in this book expand upon the imagination and touch upon human themes through the act of storytelling. An ideal addition to any library.
