A review by leone107
1919 by Eve L. Ewing

5.0

I appreciate Eve's insight into the 1919 Chicago race riots and how she chose to express it in verse. My favorites are 'or does it explode', 'keeping house', 'Jump / Rope', 'Countless Schemes' and 'upon seeing a picture of a car in a school book'. What a time to reflect on this tragic event with the centennial anniversary of the race riots approaching in July.
