Serpentine Tongue is a composite of 11 of Maryanne D. Brown
Campbell's earlier works, featuring poems, plays, collages and
pencil sketches of her visions, and artistry. She presents the
trials and tribulations, the life experiences, and notions of a
young African-American woman in love, in pain, in anger and in
question of life. She makes a heart wrenching and everlasting
impression of what it is to be a woman and a minority in this
account, which can serve as her diary. Each of her 11 books is
inspired by and written for people with great significance in her
life, as is outlined on her dedication page. This work consists of
8 books of poetry, 2 plays and a spoken word poem. The subject
matter ranges from spirituality, the perils of love, sex,
veneration and commemoration, abuse, humor, enigma, addiction,
lesbianism, and beauty, to HIV, poverty, growth, slavery,
relationships, and adversity and the list goes on. In this account
the author isn't afraid to let the audience know who she is. This
book is vital, real, raw and unapologetic. This book is recommended
for a mature audience only, who'd like to enter, dissect, invade,
and intrude the psyche of a woman. This account is recommended to
those who'd like to be enriched, bewitched, offended, discovered
and infected by a Nubian Princesses' angst and audacity to speak
her mind. The author speaks to the African-American community, the
feminist community, the hip-hop, spoken word, "don't give a fuck ,"
smoke so much doja, drank so much yak, bling-bling, and do my thang
community, to the sista's sitting pretty and oh so sedity, to the
brotha's on lock with no key, to all the Wannabe's (new tribe in
AfreeCA), to the Anybody community. ThisBook is a testament to the
testament "Word is born "
