When Ramona Jones started writing and performing poetry during the rise of spoken word venues and poetry slams of the late 1990s, she immediately stood out as a contradiction of her generation. Reminiscent of the legends of the Harlem Renaissance but with postmodernist flair, she tells stories that give emotion a face.
Love Letters: To Whom They May Concern is the first compilation of Jones' poetry. It is the testimony of the gifts and callings we try to outrun, which instead overtake us so that we might give birth to something greater than ourselves.
From the thought provoking "Prevalence of Irrelevance" and "Loaded" to the romantic "Poetry's Ocean" and "Strange-Hers," these 40 soul searching poems are timeless, commanding, enchanting and transparent. Arranged as love letters to the most important things in her life, they reflect the journey Jones has embarked on as a woman, lover, mother and poet. Here is the personification of humanity's pursuit of love --genuine and uplifting -- from a poetic force to be reckoned with.
