Walter Dean Myers’ collections bring together his short fiction and poetry. The nine titles published between 1993 and 2011 range from the photo-poetry of Brown Angels to the neighborhood stories of 145th Street to the verse collection Here in Harlem.
These works show Myers at his most lyrical and concentrated. The short story collections capture life in Harlem through interconnected vignettes, while his poetry volumes use rhythm and imagery to celebrate Black identity and community.
