BRASSBONES & RAINBOWS is the debut poetry collection of Shirley
Bradley LeFlore, an oral poet and performance artist from St. Louis,
Missouri who has been on the literary scene for over five decades. While
LeFlore tackles social, political and cultural issues with a profound
love for humanity, she also provides insight into self-identity,
inner-strength, beauty and faith. A literary griot, LeFlore shares the
fabric of verse through jazz, blues and gospel in an easy going, smooth
and soothing Southern American dialect mixed with African American
Vernacular English serving as musical notes. BRASSBONES & RAINBOWS
is a stunning testament to Shirley Bradley LeFlore, a story singer whose
words will certainly roll off your tongue.
