In her title poem, Honoree Fanonne Jeffers tells of the creation of barbecue, of how slaves cooked their masters' scraps into not merely a survival food but a cuisine. Powerful and moving, Jeffers's poems also provide more than mere sustenance, teaching that sometimes the "nasty leftovers" of life can be transformed into music, scripture, celebration.
