Chalk Outlines of Snow Angels

Jasmine Mans’ Chalk Outlines of Snow Angels book review By Spencer GreeneChalk Outlines of Snow Angels is an honest anthology of poetry written by 20-year-old Jasmine Mans. Growing up in Newark, NJ, Jasmine has seen enough destruction and beauty to be both humbled and hungry for a greater art and government. Her poetry relays the stories that have been placed upon her heart, offering something tangible to audiences and critics alike. Chalk Outlines of Snow Angels creatively delivers a series of heartfelt and blood-boiling pieces that are filled with both religious and political undertones. What follows are story-tales, lurking in the air that only some of us are chosen to hear. Here, she does not hold her tongue or her pen. This book is a representation of who Jasmine Mans is becoming, not who she is. Chalk Outlines of Snow Angels is filled with a variety of Jasmine’s most perfect and cherished flaws.
