Review
Part morning affirmation, part clapback, E'mon's poems pay homage to the hood under her nose and the body in front of her mirror. Commando carves out a space for both to exist and be loved without fear, "someplace where we can just walk". --Jamila Woods, singer, songwriter and poet
Emon Lauren's Commando is a chapbook of admirable promise. Too often, if we hear about ourselves and our neighborhoods at all, the telling is secondhand and suspiciously motivated. Behold, in this book, a poet of our own. Watch her put her hands down into her home and pick up precisely what she wants to show us, and what we need to see. This is the beginning. -- Nate Marshall, author of The Wild Hundreds

Chris Terrill is a man in search of his limit. He's 55 years old. He is not a soldier. He was trained by the Royal Marines and he went with them to Afghanistan. The only difference was that instead of a gun, Chris was holding a camera and filmed the whole ordeal for a major TV series. The Royal Marines Commando training base in Lympstone Devon, has a famous motto: '99.9 per cent need not apply'. Of those who start training, after a very tough selection process, nearly 50 per cent fail to make it through the most gruelling physical tests of any armed forces in the world in an eight month training regime. The elite who do eventually pass out are generally eighteen years old and at the peak of physical condition.But Chris Terrill was the exception: this book tells of his heroic struggle to become the oldest man to win the coveted Royal Marines Commando Green Beret and enter the record books. And after six months of hell, what next? Chris follows the raw recruits on a tour to Southern Afghanistan. He tells the story in book and film of the fears and hopes of the youngsters as they are plunged into one of the planet's most dangerous wars in the outlaw mountain terrain of Helmand Province. He tells of ferocious battles against the Taliban, of firefights, of jaw-dropping heroism, British sang froid and humour and tragedy as causalities that are suffered - all from the unique perspective of a civilian who has achieved the ultimate accolade: to be accepted as an honorary Royal Marines Commando. Commando is a brilliant account of modern war on the front line. Ref A4 3. Seller Inventory # 033259
