Ancient, Ancient
Ancient, Ancient is a collection of short fiction by Kiini Ibura Salaam. Acclaimed author and critic Nalo Hopkinson writes, Salaam treats words like the seductive weapons they are. She wields them to weave fierce, gorgeous stories that stroke your sensibilities, challenge your preconceptions, and leave you breathless with their beauty. Indeed, Ms. Salaams stories are so permeated with sensuality that in her introduction to Ancient, Ancient, Nisi Shawl, author of the award-winning Filter House, writes, Sexuality-cum-sensuality is the experiential link between mind and matter, the vivid and eternal refutation of the alleged dichotomy between them. And it is the throbbing, glistening heart of Kiinis body of work. Salaams unusual settings and lonely characters will call to readers who hunger for sex, identity, or just a place to belong.Publishers Weekly, March 5, 2012
