Everett Anderson''s Goodbye is a touching portrait of a
little boy who is trying to come to grips with his father''s death.
Lucille Clifton captures Everett''s conflicting emotions as he
confronts this painful reality. We see him struggle through many
stages, from denial and anger to depression and, finally,
acceptance. In this spare and moving poem, the last in this
acclaimed series, Lucille Clifton brings Everett Anderson''s life
full circle.
