The Black Unicorn: Poems

Lovely copy of this title in paperback condition. I appreciate the prompt shipping.

Audre Lorde makes no apologies about herself as a Black woman, a mother, a daughter, a lesbian, a feminist and a visionary. Her poetry can be quite sensual and sexual at times. From the first poem entitled, "The Black Unicorn," and the "Solstice." Lorde is quite a vocal female character regarding her opinions and views. In 1981, her sexual orientation was not in vogue to be talked about. Lorde's open-ness is quite apparent in her poetry but I would have liked to know some background information regarding each poem since I'm not much of a poetry reader or follower of Audre Lorde but I do admire her work. Too bad, she's gone because she would have been quite an influence in today's society and her voice silenced by her death of cancer robbed the world of her voice.

This book caught my attention with breathtaking twists, and supprises! Multisided and mysterious characters, all seeking truth. A WONDERFUL Terry Brooks book.

This was a really good book, not as good as the first, but still really good. I really liked the originality of the plot, I never expected what happened to happen, the unicorns being traped in the book and only the black unicorn being able to free them. I also liked the return of the villians from the first book. All the same loveable characters also made a come back. I really enjoyed not knowing what to expect next in this book.

Terry Brooks has done a good job with this book. It took me two days to get through this book and I have read it a couple more times; it has never failed to impress me
