” … I found myself reading the book over and over… Giles poignantly tackles timely issues such as the rise of social media, race relations in America…”–verified reader Amazon, 5 Stars
A heavy dose of lyricism from writer LaMar S. Giles is just what the doctor ordered. A fresh perspective on current affairs, Giles brings to light his darker shades of reflection. On not just the downtrodden, but society at large during the pandemic, effects of social media, and even tackles the momentous topic of our time: racial inequality. Echoing the great Langston Hughes, readers are already looking forward to the next release from Giles.
