Moon Marked and Touched by Sun: A Dramatic Cultural Journey,
By Azya R.Y. Maxton (Louisville, Kentucky) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Moon Marked and Touched by Sun: Plays by African-American Women (Paperback)
"Moon Marked and Touched by Sun: Plays by African-American Women" takes the reader on a dramatic cultural journey which is well-worth the ride. "Moon Marked...", edited by Sydne Mahone contains plays by such celebrated authors as Aisha Rahman, Susan Lori Parks, and Adrienne Kennedy among others. Although some of the material such as Kennedy's "Funnyhouse of a Negro" and Parks' "The Death of the Last Black Man in the Whole Entire World" is a little abstract(to say the least), this anthology is a must-read for any one with an interest in Black theater and an eye-opener for anyone intelligent enough to want to delve into the mind of the African-American woman. "Moon Marked..." as a collection, deals with the paradoxes of being Black, being female, and being an artist in a world which can be cruel to all of the above. Do not miss out on the opportunity to bear witness to this creative collaboration. WARNING: This book is not for the weak at heart or mind; contains some profanity and extremely thought-provoking material.
