Monday Morning Book Review--For Colored Girls who have Considered Suicide when the Rainbow is Enuf

For Colored Girls who have Considered Suicide when the Rainbow is Enuf  by Ntozake Shange. This book is written to include stage direction and characters as well as the poetry that makes up the story.  Originally published in the 1970's, it will be released this week as a movie directed by Tyler Perry.  The style of writing reminds me of Ellen Hopkins' books.  The subject matter is dark and edgy but in a way that is thought provoking.
