- Elliott Madison, author and editor
Past reviews of Davida (Kilgore) Adedjouma’s work.
Publishers Weekly stated that, “Kilgore’s debut [Last Summer] … offers an
impressive array of distinct characters. The voices here are those of black
women eloquently articu-lating their experiences … Every piece conveys a
struggle either with poverty, domestic violence, death or with simply being
a black person in America, often complemented by a generous helping of
irresistible humor.”
