...since 1996, Ieola Bakr, her two sisters and their mother have enjoyed a weekend getaway at the Akwaaba Mansion. The four-room inn, in a quaint Italian villa-style home, offers a peaceful retreat where the women talk and relax--they walk in the gardens, soak in the Jacuzzi and savor a Southern breakfast with homemade grits and biscuits.

Not only fun but educational - I was pleased to learn the origin of the Jacuzzi and the Leslie speaker - this clever theme limits the self-indulgence of the works and virtually forces creators to write linear narratives. You end up with such oddball delights as Nicky B.'s juvenile, hip-hop version of the old chestnut Davey Crocket story ("My hunting skills are badass!") Reading...
