    African & African American Studies. "I get this pinwheel relationship to wisdom & history when I read Simone White. I'm in her dream, but it's a remarkable solidly packed one informed by the quotidian rarity of for instance a prose disquisition on lotion and skin and haircare especially in winter. Like Dana Ward's, her work sends me searching. Like what part of speech is here. As I'm wondering Simone sometimes exits first, and I even feel that a real piece of her poem is adamantly not here and that is her privacy, her power & her skill so what kind of quest is it, this beautiful complex & alive work. Here's my best guess. OF BEING DISPERSED is an ur text of the fourth wave of feminism which we come to realize is ocean and women are now standing on it and amidst this clatter of voices Simone White walks." Eileen Myles "In Simone White's poetry the action is always multiple, palpable, sounding as thought, coming forward through this highly sensitized plane, sudden and hovering, exchanging centers, afflicted and added to by company. The continuous listening company demands company including imaginary self, receding boundaries, the horseman on the night's street, the live, the loved, the drunk, the words, the turnstile, the endless destructive projections people force and the rendering of that listening into irreducible depths of tone, wit, and perception constitute much of what makes OF BEING DISPERSED a masterful book. Buzzing word-love marking time beat by beat, being the ground inside and out, makes up the rest." Anselm Berrigan "Macaronic plenitude of language instantiates places and states of mind. If Edouard Glissant says that we write in the presence of all the world's languages, then we have in Simone White's OF BEING DISPERSED, an underground stream reaching the surface of the page in lines acrobatic and limber, fluent in code switch, mood shift and modes of inquiry. I read White's volume as a poetic lens on the specificities of the diaspora and the 'dispersed, ' written with baroque skepticism, feminist vision and attention to the complications of a Black yet to be storyed any/where." Erica Hunt"

    Her long dark auburn hair cascaded over her shoulders and her pale, attractive face, wide set eyes and full sensuous lips took his breath away. Robert could not help staring at her in frank amazement. He found it difficult to equate this alluring woman with the tall, awkward girl he vaguely remembered while a young boy at Fairlee Manor in Scotland.* * *Action, adventure and erotic entanglements loom large in young Robert Hamilton’s future as he seeks to make his fortune in the rough and tumble world of the Johannesburg goldfields in the closing years of the nineteenth century.Robert’s business interests and adventures in the wilds of South Africa, bring him into close contact with the Boer peoples of the Transvaal Republic.

    Using every means available to him, he tried to find out something, anything about this clown, but it was almost as if the guy didn’t exist. It’s okay though. He was David Singleton, owner of the champion Philadelphia Stallions football team, and when it came to his business and the things that he wanted, he didn’t just play the game, he played it to win and win by any means necessary. If it was the last thing he did on this earth, he would find out who this Rocky Curtis II guy was, and once he did… Billionaire Rocklyn Curtis II, known as Rocky to her closest friends, knew that she was pushing the illustrious David Singleton’s buttons, but to be perfectly honest she really didn’t care. Despite the team’s horrible record for the past three seasons or the fact that they needed to be completely overhauled she wanted it, and just like any other business acquisition that she went after and ultimately acquired, there was no doubt in her mind that she would be the new owner of the Philadelphia Razors. As far as her only supposed competition for ownership of the team went, she had done her homework on David Singleton so naturally she knew more about him than he knew about her. She knew about his flamboyant lifestyle, the many, many women who waited in line just for the opportunity to be with him, and even knew of his Alpha male arrogance as well as his dominance and tenacity in matters of business. She knew just about everything there was to know about her rival, the distinguished David Singleton, but what she had no way of knowing was that their first face to face meeting would turn out to be unlike anything that she could have possibly expected.
