Notes of a Neurotic!

In Notes of a Neurotic, Summer Hill Seven provides poetry, essays and plays that are as bombastic as the writings of Amiri Baraka as piercing as Miguel Pinero and as poetic as Paul Laurence Dunbar often all in the same sentence. In addition to the entertainment and intellectual value, these Notes of a Neurotic are specifically designed to heal the emotions of the reader, the speaker and the writer of these words.

Summer Hill Séven is known on stage and screen as Sevîn Ákbar. Both names were given to him by his dearly departed mother and both are authentic. 7 is a writer and spoken-word artist who has performed at the Nuyorican Poetry Café, Bowery Poetry Café and Afrikan Poetry Theatre. He has written and directed an autobiographical film – A Poet’s Pilgrimage – about a young poet’s decision to abandon the law and pursue his dream of becoming a poet. He is a graduate of Sister Clara Muhammad High School, Richard Stockton College of New Jersey and the New York University School of Law. He is completing a new one-person poemedy entitled, 7:Nobody Knows My Name based on his memoirs. 7 is also a talented stage actor who feels as comfortable performing Shakespeare as he does the works of Laurence Holder or August Wilson. Finally, 7 is the talented director of the long running hip-hop romantic comedy Platanos & Collard Greens about which the Amsterdam News exclaimed his direction was "powerful!" 7 is from New York but he is currently completing his MFA at the University of Delaware's top-ranked classical theatre training program.

The cover of the book is a topic I will return to but suffice it to say for now that it is written on the bill of rights...which is about everything that such an act would imply. The nigga on the cover that is crossed out is not intended to describe the author as much as the audience the design is intended to convey that this description has and will continue to be applied to the author since he is also a part of the intended audience. If this confuses you after you read the book then read Kennedy's book entitled Nigger. The most revolutionary thing about this book is contained in the subtitle. It is the author's intent to change the way books are written and thus by whom they are read. Posted by Hello
