Bright-Eyed

Thirty-two poems recall this native New Yorker's childhood relocation with her family to sunny California (The San Fernando Valley); growing up on the West Coast in the 1960s-as a preteen, teen, and young adult; and her responses to her new surroundings and the times. Several poems explore the interracial tension of the times (Watts Riots, Civil Rights Amendment) from the viewpoint of a young person whose older sister created an interracial family. From the perspectives of both family and race, the poet explores her relationships with her nephew, niece, and brother-in-law. If you like the work of Diane Wakoski or James Broughton, you will enjoy the whim and wit this book.
