CANAAN'S LABYRINTH
Author: Fumi Bankole

Fumi Bankole began writing stories at the age of eight and journaling and writing poetry by twelve. She majored in Biochemistry at CSUDH. These experiences, along with a rich cultural life, were the ingredients for the writing of Canaan's Labyrinth, the first book of a trilogy called The Book of Turns. Her work in other genres include Allegories of a Red Hot Angel, a collection of poems published by Author House; L.A. River, a CD of acoustic music; and Zoom Zoom & Wham Whams, a chap book of poetry.
