Black Lawrence

Emotional, raw, and real, this memoir is a deep dive into one couple’s trials and triumphs to redefine marriage to fit their lives and needs. A valuable addition to memoir collections.

The poet ably captures and illuminates the most significant moments of the complex, often tragic, past that have shaped the present. As this book moves from ancient to modern times, poetic richness gives way to the more conventional narrative, reflecting the loss of wonder and mystery inherent in the saga itself.

A strong collection by an important voice in the genre. It will appeal to fans of the haunted flash fiction collection The Ghost Variations by Kevin Brockmeier and the breadth of scares in the anthology Tiny Nightmares, edited by Lincoln Michel and Nadxieli Nieto.
