Opis

A Caribbean woman, Eugenia takes the reader directly to her roots as in "Ma, I Remember," and "Memoryland." In "St. Michael Road," the village road in Tacarigua, on which she grew up, the author recalls growing up in her neighborhood, among her neighbors in those ole time days with ole village time ways, and ole time village architecture. Passionate about life, Eugenia delves into the ups and downs of love, pursuit of dreams, and self-esteem issues, but pauses to spend some serious play time with the children, in the section for the children. Finally, she bids her readers, Adieu, as she takes her leave.and to finally bid her readers in the final section, Adieu. Quietly powerful, each poem in this selection, though light, compels the reader to pause and reflect.
