Beskrivning
In Hoops, Major Jackson continues to mine the solemn marvels of ordinary lives: a grandfather gardens in a tenement backyard; a teacher unconsciously renames her black students after French painters. The substance of Jackson's art is the representation of American citizens whose heroic endurance makes them remarkable and transcendent.

Recensioner i media

"[Hoops] is a layered metaphor, implying, among other things, basketball, jewelry, and life's hurdles... Witty, musical, and intelligent; [Jackson] is equally happy discussing the war on terror... or describing early crushes." The New Yorker"
