In Dying Of A Light, DF Smith skillfully recreates the picturesque
waterfront university campus in historic Virginia, the raw sounds,
smells & mindstate of the Jersey City street ecosystem. He
gives an interesting insight into the sociocultural theoretical
perspective of urban youth. familiar to some, known to a few, but
told by none. The story begins in the early seventies when
Palladium is born into chaos and rescued by a strong Black woman.
He embarks upon an odyssey which is all to natural in regards to
his genetic coding, but contrary to his moral home teachings. This
serious life threatening, life loosing narrative gives a unique
view into the actuality of events that take place subsequent to
young adults leaving their parents nest. & detail, Smith
presents an all to rarely witnessed part of young black culture
with a provocative portrayal of the silent bonds between men &
women of color. difficult decisions in the face of unimaginable
danger, giving a clearer, deeper understanding to the
psychodynamics of the urban Black mind.
