Review: Lilies In The Valley
A review of Lilies, by poet and teacher Joseph Ross. I am thankful to Joseph for his kindness in picking up the book and taking the time.
"Cedric Tillman’s poetry collection Lilies in the Valley has vision and faith. It looks and believes. These poems look deeply into human concerns with vivid details and rich, sometimes amusing descriptions. What they always do, for me, is draw me to look deeply at my own life. Tillman explores our various identities as family members, citizens, and people of varying levels of faith. The beauty of the poems is so strong it invites us all to the same exploration. For this, we can be grateful to Cedric Tillman and to Willow Books for getting these fine poems into our hands. I’ve been enjoying this collection for a few months now and I know I will return to it again and again..."

Feb. 2 Reading at the American Poetry Museum, Washington, DC
On Sunday Feb. 2, I'll be reading at the American Poetry Museum with fellow American University MFA program graduate Steve Castro and fellow Cave Canem fellow/professor/poet Jane Alberdeston from 3-5 pm. This is my first event since IN MY FEELINS came out and I'm grateful to Samuel Miranda and Fred Joiner for their generosity in hosting us. (We'll be sure to get y'all out if you're catching the Super Bowl as I am.)
