Reviews
Praise for Tongo Eisen-Martin and Heaven Is All Goodbyes: "Eisen-Martin''s impeccable collection is a crucial document of this time."--Publishers Weekly,starred review "Eisen-Martin is singing in dark times about dark times. Every poem pops with rightly sad inscrutability"--Chicago Tribune "Eisen-Martin''s voice is a chorus of other voices, many arising from prisons and landscapes of engineered poverty; his poems are places where discourses and vernaculars collide and recombine into new configurations capable of expressing outrage and sorrow and love. This unpredictable volume is equally a work of commitment and of wonder; no false consolation, no settling for despair. Its music makes a clearing in the dominant logic of the day."--Griffin Poetry Prizes Judges'' Citation "The tesseraic language of Tongo Eisen-Martin''s Heaven Is All Goodbyes brings a new, shared articulation to the intricacies and interconnections of grief and life, speech and site, state and inhabitant, violence and landscape. Here, polyvocal assemblages gather and revolt against our ''porcelain epoch / succeeding for the most part / dying for the most part / married for the most part to its death.'' This is resistance as sound."--Claudia Rankine "I don''t know that there is a living writer whose work loves Black people as much as Tongo Eisen-Martin''s work loves us. In Heaven Is All Goodbyes, like all of Eisen-Martin''s work, this Black love is not clumsy, easy, sentimental or reliant on spectacle. That Black love lives in the cracked history and ambient future of who we''ve been in the dark, and what''s been done to us in the light. These poems somehow watch and listen without intervening. And when they ask, they ask everything. Heaven Is All Goodbyes makes me want to live, and write, with us forever."--Kiese Laymon "What a wonderful feeling for life. If we are born--we will die. If we love--we will be rejected. If we are rejected--we will leave. The balance of these poems, one against another, gives us laughter, love and hope. Heaven isn''t goodbye--it''s only the next stop on our heart''s journey."--Nikki Giovanni "Tongo Eisen-Martin''s poems are echo chambers of vernaculars and unofficial languages. He both registers the damage caused by systemic racism and evinces--and by his work extends--the rich modes of resistance that rise up to meet it. His is a poetry of total commitment that never becomes merely programmatic and instead stretches the possibilities of meaning to the far edge of sense, where they become music."--Ben Lerner "Yet again Tongo Eisen-Martin employs his blade-sharp intellect, his wry and piercing wit and unflinching candor to make poems that matter. This collection demands that the reader sees more than themselves--both on the page and in the surrounding world. The poems beg to be read aloud, to be pronounced as spells and incantations, as reports back from communities both known and shrouded. Read this work. Then read it again. Again. Again."--Chinaka Hodge author of Dated Emcees "This striking new work from Tongo Eisen-Martin is a timely reminder of Amiri Baraka''s call for poems that are useful, poems that breathe like wrestlers. At every turn, Heaven Is All Goodbyes demands that we engage the systemic violence woven into our daily living right alongside the persistent force that is black social life, the joy that everyday people cultivate against unthinkable odds. In a moment marked by cynicism and disenchantment, Eisen-Martin remains a believer: in the commons, in collective struggle, in our capacity to flourish in the midst of what we were never meant to survive."--Joshua Bennett, author of The Sobbing School "Eisen-Martin''s poetry presents a frank and unflinching portrait of the contemporary urban imagination unrelentingly ravaged by social injustice. He serves witness to how prevalent the imbalances of race and power in our society are."--American Poetry Review

Synopsis
Radical, outraged, knowing, wry, and deeply humane, poems of survival that soar with a vision of collective liberation., This is our lead title of the season. In early 2021, Tongo was named the 8th Poet Laureate of San Francisco, which garnered major media coverage and involves high profile public events through 2023. This book will be prominently featured in all settings. Along with Amanda Gorman, Tongo is among a group of younger Black poets now receiving widespread media attention. His social justice and education advocacy for prisoners, at-risk youth, and other vulnerable populations are central to his writing. His reputation and visibility mirror fellow notable poets of color including Hanif Abdurraqib, Danez Smith, Natalie Diaz, Morgan Parker, Aja Monet, and Eve Ewing. Tongo is well known around the U.S. and beyond since his first book with City Lights, Heaven Is All Goodbyes, was shortlisted for the 2018 Griffin International Poetry Prize. (Ben Lerner was a judge for that prize and is a strong advocate of Tongo's work.) Heaven Is All Goodbyes also won a California Book Award, an American Book Award, a PEN Oakland Award, and the NCIBA Award for Poetry from Northern California Independent booksellers. Tongo's profile has grown exponentially. He received praise for Heaven Is All Goodbyes from Claudia Rankine, Joshua Bennett, and Nikki Giovanni. Endorsements for Blood on the Fog received from Terrance Hayes, Gerald Horne, Justin Philip Reed, and Kiese Laymon. Sonia Sanchez may provide one, as well. This is Tongo's second book with our press and his second in the Pocket Poets Series, placing him in the vaulted and unusual company of poets like Allen Ginsberg who have more than one volume in the series. Tongo was profiled by the PBS NewsHour and excerpts from Heaven Is All Goodbyes appeared in the New York Times Magazine and Harper's. Eisen-Martin is a riveting spoken-word poet, as well as an activist and a charismatic educator. He is in high demand as a performer and speaker, regularly touring, virtually and otherwise, across the U.S. Tongo's recent events included conversations with respected elders Cornel West, Sonia Sanchez, and Gerald Horne, as well as with his contemporary, Hanif Abdurraqib., 2021 Golden Poppy Award Winner for Poetry - Chosen by the California Independent Booksellers Alliance 2022 California Book Award Finalist Politically astute, filled with wisdom and great humanity, this is poetry meant to conjure a healing and provoke a confrontation, an invitation to a journey through Black America. "Words are not the revolution itself, Eisen-Martin seems to say, and yet this book disturbed me more than any other I read this year. It reminds me that poetry can rewire our thinking--can actually change our minds--by using nothing like the rote language we're so used to hearing in speech and in prose. It can jolt us out of patterns, back into intelligence."-- The New York Times, " The Best Poetry of 2021" A rhapsodic follow-up to Tongo Eisen-Martin's Heaven is All Goodbyes , this collection further explores themes of love and loss, family and faith, refracted through the lens of Black experience. These poems honor intellectual tradition and ancestral knowledge while blazing an entirely new path, recording and replaying the poet's sensory travels through America, from its packed metropolises to desolate anytowns. Radical, outraged, knowing, wry, and deeply humane, these are poems of survival that soar with a vision of collective liberation. Praise for Blood on the Fog : "Continuing the lofty tradition of Langston Hughes, June Jordan, and Amiri Baraka, Tongo Eisen-Martin has emerged on center stage as today's premier revolutionary poet. A master craftsman and a sensitive artist, he reserves his sledgehammer words for the cruelty of imperialism. He should not only be read--he should be studied."--Gerald Horne "In Blood on the Fog , find a poetry of 'swinging type body language' where the swinging swings like Ellington and Ali combined, knocking you out inside and out, and turning you around in this extraordinary book."--Terrance Hayes "Black poetry has got to get its head around the deranged way language and the world expect us to be and live again. Tongo has figured this out, is feeling out how to vein the poem with his own life, and that's why I love his work."--Simone White "This is no precious, immortal-aspirational monologue; no autocrat stone of finality; no poor folks as thought experiments. More fugue than state. More disturbance as the groove. If poems are for anything, I feel like it must be this."--Justin Phillip Reed " Blood on the Fog is the illest artifact of time travel I've ever experienced. Tongo Eisen-Martin takes us to a tomorrow and yesterday where we stand--contorted and mangled--but oh so beautiful, faithful and free."--Kiese Laymon "Whether speaking rhyme in slant, calling forward Medgar Evers, or the spirituality of an oppressed people, Eisen-Martin offers stanza after stanza as a sunrise. Each poem leads us towards our liberation. This means these poems are heavy in their desire to free our current state of stoic apathy. This means Tongo Eisen-Martin's poetic legacy will live forever."--Mahogany L.
