Bubble Gum Stadium is a Home Run!

It’s Publication Day for Bubble Gum Stadium!

Snag a copy of Jalen Eutsey’s book.

ABOUT THE BOOK

A home is made by the memories it holds, and in Bubble Gum Stadium, Jalen Eutsey makes us his house guests.

Flush with the rich colors of South Florida, these poems immerse you in a history of a place and its people. Bubble Gum Stadium grips the reader with its immersive recollections and starkly beautiful language. We’re given a scrapbook black community and coming-of age, so lovingly rendered in the backdrop of West Perrine.

Memory offered as a gift, one Eutsey asks us to treasure; after all, what happens when it’s gone?
