"M-A-C-N-O-L-I-A: Poems" is a powerful and evocative collection of poetry that tells a heartbreaking tale of triumph and loss. The author, Jordan, skillfully stretches the story over various poetic structures, creating an opus that exposes the rancor of racial injustice in our nation. The poems in this book evoke strong emotions and offer a deep and rich exploration of black history. The different styles of poetry make it accessible to both poetry readers and non-readers alike. Overall, "M-A-C-N-O-L-I-A: Poems" is an excellent and important addition to the African-American literary genre.
