Winner, 2016 BCALA Literary Award (poetry category) Winner of the 2014 Agnes Lynch Starrett Poetry Prize Finalist, 2015 NAACP Image Awards (poetry category) Wild Hundreds is a long love song to Chicago. The book celebrates the people, culture, and places often left out of the civic discourse and the travel guides. Wild Hundreds is a book that displays the beauty of black survival and mourns the tragedy of black death.

For #recommendsday I'm going to shout out to Nate Marshall's outstanding poetry book, Wild Hundreds. The book takes its name from the neighborhood in the far South Side of Chicago where Nate is from. The streets are numbered on the south side and it's where the hundreds start. Chicago is in the media a lot for the violence here, and this collection speaks to being a young person in a lower income, sometimes dangerous city.
