Really interesting, because the author is interesting. I liked her poetry about race / racism / migration a lot. Didn't like the ones about body and sexuality, probably because I'm usually not interested in these topics. Her writing style was okay.

Most of it was bad. Ala monkeys writing Shakespeare by banging on a keyboard.

Such a wonderful group of poems from start to finish. I love any kind of poet that can express themselves in such a broad and personal matter, as Roisin did here. At the end of these pages, I can assure you, that Fariha relates as a friend and a woman fighting the same causes as I do.

I feel… conflicted about this one. There were some poems that really got me, and drove home the point of the anger and powerlessness. But there were others that didn’t. Overall, tho, it’s a good one.
