challenging dark emotional hopeful informative inspiring relaxing sad tense medium-paced

4.75

This is not a book that I think can be read in one sitting. I had to pause and come back so many times. Not just out of sadness or anger but because a phrase, a line, a stanza, a poem hit me in a deep place and I needed a moment or several really. I adore this work.

Beautiful poems about all the ways Black women lose, repossess, fight for, love, and leave their homes, both figurative and literal.
