Jazzy Zigzagin' Blues: a Poetic Novel Dalvin Clifford

Love ain't even really about love. Half of it's a damn lie Mary and Rainbow, friends since childhood, have been through everything together, and nothing has ever been able to tear them apart as they mature and find themselves in relationships and constant soul-searching. Through memorable characters, such as loudmouthed Candice, opinionated Miss Real, shy little Dookie, lovesick Miss Billy, and more, some funny, others insightful, they learn how to navigate in life. Mary realizes her jazzy poetic way with words at an early age, but a secret from the past that tore her mother and aunt apart is slowly doing the same to her until the explosive night when everyone is forced to face it head-on. Rainbow has longed to be loved for as long as she could remember but is considering washing her hands of love altogether after finding herself yet again left heartbroken and confused, until a man from her past returns ready to give her all that she's been missing. In his thought-provoking, coming of age, poetic debut novel, Dalvin Clifford expresses how day-to-day blues must be overcome in order for one to prosper. A sassy yet humorously honest story that dives headfirst into issues of love and forgiveness, Jazzy Zigzagin' Blues is guaranteed to take readers on a journey they will never forget.
