The Bluest Eye (4/13/2006)
This book is not easy to read, but those who persist on will appreciate the beauty of language that the author had woven. It has beautiful use of metaphor and for those who like poetry, they will enjoy it tremendeously.
Saddam

by Con Coughlin
Saddam: King of Terror (4/7/2006)
