The Black Ball
by Harambee Grey-Sun
ISBN-10: 0773434518
Review by Heather Froeschl
Take time to savor the poetry of this title. It is meant to be taken in, tasted and understood. Poetry is an art that so few can master and still remain contemporary. The Black Ball is an example of a job well done in this art form.
The lives of college students are revealed in this story told through poem. College life apparently isn't what it used to be, and the young are no longer as young as they were. The book chronicles four years of interactions, learnings, and life, of several students. Within the pages are revenge and life lessons, hatred and understanding.
This is not light reading; it is a memorable experience.
"This retreat...it's all about face. Have I stepped too far out of place, undertaken a venture that promises ill?"
Not so. Harambee Grey-Sun has begun the process of becoming a respected poet.
