Poetry. "Bradajo, one of the pioneers of local Hawai'i literature in Pidgin (Hawaiian Creole English), writes poems in an idiosyncratic and artful calligraphy. His is wisdom poetry, composed of runic strings of words: like 'fo / get / dem / salf / imijes / man' or like 'pooo / chooo / mai / neen / nooo / chrol'"--Honolulu Star-Bulletin. Bradajo (Jozuf Hadley) was born on Kauai, taught art in Waianae and Vermont, and now lives at the back of the Manoa valley. He performs his work throughout the state to enthusiastic audiences. Tinfish Press is proud to present new work by one of the state's most respected poets.
