"This innovative work allows the objects it covers to breathe as living things. McClusky has evolved what appears to be a new way of writing a catalogue on African art. The writing is interesting, the stories surrounding the objects often fascinating. Thompson's essay is wonderfully composed. This is a work that can be enjoyed by the non-specialist reader for the tales it tells alone. Further, the objects are impressive, often spectacular."--Simon Ottenberg, University of WashingtonMcClusky, Pamela is the author of 'Art from Africa Long Steps Never Broke a Back', published 2002 under ISBN 9780691092959 and ISBN 0691092958.
