1919 by Eve L. Ewing

challenging emotional reflective medium-paced

5.0

I enjoyed the addition of the excerpts from a historical document. I think it gave extra context for those of us (ahem, me) who may struggle to fully wrap their heads around poetry. I loved the cadence of these. The nursery rhyme one specifically made me think. It made me cry. It made me want to do more to be more educated. I need to be less of a bystander which is pointed out within this book. Truly amazing, to use a singular event to transcend time and lines creating a discussion of what is need now.
