A Review by Larry Ukali Johnson-Redd
November 17, 2010
At first I jumped around the poetry, spoken word and prose at first. Although I met Loretta several years ago, I decided to read the whole book after I read the journal entries (Pages 97 to 126).
Once I read the journal entries, I felt I know Loretta more than just another poet, author, spoken word artist and African-American queen of multiple ethnicities. In the journal lie Loretta's love, soul, humanity, womanhood, faith, and sisterhood.
In the journal you will also find where her search for her father's love from Haiti to Cuba to Boston to Michigan to Sacramento ends up. If you area man and have a lost daughter like Loretta, find her and fight for the right to see her like Terry Moore another Sacramento poet/spokenword artist did in the way he found Tyra- his daughter! Like a good man he fought legally for a share of custody of his daughter.
I then read each and every poem, prose and. spokenword piece in the book. When you read this book read A Love Supreme, Love Pains, Brown Shag Carpet, Mother Sonia, Voices and all of the others. Every man disconnected with a daughter should read this book and so should every one else!
