Roxane Orgill chronicles the historic 1958 gathering of fifty-seven jazz legends on a Harlem brownstone stoop, a moment immortalized by photographer Art Kane for Esquire magazine. Through a series of evocative poems, the book captures the atmosphere of the day and the individual personalities of the musicians, providing a rhythmic narrative that bridges the gap between visual art and musical history.
