She is able to transport you to places you didn't even know existed but by the end you will never want to leave." - Elliott Madison, author and editor Past reviews of Davida (Kilgore) Adedjouma's work. Publishers Weekly stated that, "Kilgore's debut [Last Summer] ... offers an impressive array of distinct characters. The voices here are those of black women eloquently articu-lating their experiences ... Every piece conveys a struggle either with poverty, domestic violence, death or with simply being a black person in America, often complemented by a generous helping of irresistible humor."
