"The Complete Muhammad Ali," the famed Oakland poet, playwright and author of 30-plus books Professor Ishmael Reed is more than the sum of his two current positions as Poet Laureate at the San Francisco Jazz Center, and as lecturer at the California College of the Arts. He's well known for his biting satire and critical works on political culture and social oppression. During his long and ongoing career, he's written countless boisterous essays, was nominated twice for a National Book Award and was a Pulitzer finalist for a book of poetry titled, "Conjure." Angela Hill Contra Costa Times

Radio-Canada’s flagship French-language book program, Plus on est de fous, plus on lit! Donald Cuccioletta calls The Complete Muhammad Ali by Ishmael Reed an “excellent book” that must be read to understand the boxer and his times. If you understand French, you are invited to listen to this interview.
Mohamed Ali a dépassé l'arène. Il a joué un rôle important dans le développement du mouvement civique, des groupes les plus modérés aux plus activistes », dit Donald Cuccioletta, qui a lu l'imposante biographie que lui consacre le poète et essayiste afro-américain Ishmael Reed. « La narration d'Ishmael Reed ressemble au free jazz », ajoute notre collaborateur.
