Monrovia Rain and Other Stories Lost and Found offers moving
perspectives on day-to-day life in the throes, and in the aftermath, of
the civil war that affected every Liberian in some way. The authors

plight of street children, the exploitation of young women, and the
continuous search for answers and closure. This short but powerful
collection, along with the authors’ reflections on their stories, will
help you understand the people who lived through the conflict just a
little bit more.
Under Ducor Skies mirrors life in its various forms—love, growth,
adventure, everyday happenings and experiences of people, near and far -
known and unknown. You’ll be entertained, inspired, provoked, and
pushed to think beyond the layers of what seems ordinary. It is a voyage
of dreamers and wanderers, who’ve held onto the tattered threads of
their dreams; pushing beyond limitations and challenges, to make
something of themselves. Readers will be given a front row seat into
Ducor, the city of dreams, through the authors’ lens. They’ll enjoy the
openness, depth, vulnerability, and ease with which she shares each
poem. Together, they’ll open old scars, mend wounds, laugh, cry, heal
and rise.
