Bronze Silhouette is a poetic collection by a Black and African woman who rhetorically views the present age from the point of view of the under-privileged socio-cultural classes. This is the third published poetic collection by Gladys Williams Russel and is, like her other two works, a virtual discourse on the life patterns and vagaries that confront the lower classes as victims of discrimination. Williams-Russel's earlier two collections, Africa Woman - The Poetic Perspective and A Middling Plain - Reflections on The Times, are also committed to the same theme and the need for men to address the issues that create pain and sadness in all societies. She speaks about love, returned and unrequited; of the pains of motherhood and the hope for positive growth in the future; of the impact on man, of the negative actions by his neighbor; of the bond between man and his God; and of the hope that wells up in every heart that tomorrow would bring forth a better rebirth.. The three collections are sequential in nature and constitute the AFRICA WOMAN SERIES. Aside from being a socio-cultural commentary, the collections also seek to answer questions that relate to the purpose of man's existence on earth, his relationship with the God Force and the effort to achieve optimum perfection here and beyond. In essence, Africa Woman is about the woman's life experience as part of the culture-transiting, post-colonial and newly independent society of the middle quarter of the 20th century. A Middling Plain, on the other hand, is a commentary on the socio-cultural impact of military interferrences and administrations that were a major occurence towards the end of the last century. Against this backdrop, the effort by the people to re-instal democratic governance, created a climate of conflict and confrontation. All three publications, and other works by the author arer available under Amazon .com

Kirsten I. Russell spent the happiest and perhaps the darkest years of her childhood in Tripoli, Libya. At the Vocational Agricultural Training Center for Libyans (VATC), a farm school where Kirsten lived with her family for six years during the 1950s, she grew closer to her parents as they created a home school for her and her older sister, but she felt estranged from them when their discipline turned punitive. During her last years in Libya, as her parents tried to restore family harmony, Kirsten and her siblings turned the VATC farm into the biggest, best playground they ever had. Years later, Kirsten learned another story of her family's years in Tripoli. Her father, Ray E. Russell, on a U.S. foreign service assignment to Libya, helped establish VATC as a joint Libyan-American project to train Libyan boys to become their newly independent nation's agricultural leaders. As he taught the students better farming methods, he watched poverty-stricken adolescents mature into professional young men. Meanwhile, he struggled with farming problems, language and cultural barriers, and faceless bureaucracies in both the U.S. and Libyan governments. Throughout the Russells' years at VATC, the family remained the only Americans among Middle Eastern faculty, staff, and students. The experience changed the students as well as the Russells, thrusting them all into a larger world outside their original homes. While Kirsten realizes the terrible cost of that experience to her family, she remembers her childhood home in Libya as a sunlit place where she and dozens of Libyan boys learned discipline, not through punishment, but through education.
