Elizabeth Alexander, "The Light of the World"

An essayist, playwright, and chair of Yale’s department of African American studies, Alexander is perhaps best known as the award-winning poet whose “Praise Song for the Day” graced Obama’s first inauguration. Her memoir is an eloquent elegy for her late husband, the Eritrean-born painter Ficre Ghebreyesus, who died suddenly at age fifty. Now raising their two sons alone, Alexander pays tribute to art and family, the enduring compensations for loss.
