Memoirs of a Dark Girl Elle Davis

Memoirs of a Dark Girl traverses the terrain of love, faith, and hope. Elle's poems carry you on a journey through the early years of a writer in the way only she can. Her creative use of metaphor and imagery bring her childhood to life. Her poems take you through themes of lust, fear, anger, and death permitting the reader a glimpse of the dark side of growing up in a society that does not see your value and does not care whether you find yourself or not. Elle's first collection of poetry allows you to grow with her as she finds the beauty and humor that is hidden in the most mundane aspects of life. From motherhood, to hair, to complexion, the things that make Elle so unique are the things that make her writing universal.
