LeRoy does it again!
LeRoy pens a unique story in Jezebel's Lament. And when he says "Jezebel", he does mean the famous or infamous Jezebel in the Bible. I love reading and listening to LeRoy's stories, one because they are unique, and two, because he is just that good. I love this perspective of Jezebel, and she is trying to deal with her "reputation" that clearly exists to this day. I recommend reading and listening to the preface, and especially the introduction, which starts out as "I, Jezebel, a harlet by repute, an appoint a poet to set the record straight..." and if she did, she chose the perfect prolific poet in LeRoy. Magnificent story, kept this reader turning the pages. A definite attention grabber. It was both intriguing, and entertaining, while making the reader really care about Jezebel, and even wonder if was what foretold was the truth. There is always more to a person than their reputation. I look forward to reading more by this author. This book is a definite recommendation by Amy's Bookshelf Reviews.
