Bless the Daughter Raised by a Voice in Her Head
by Warsan Shire
Such a beautiful, brilliant, heart-wrenching, inspiring collection. These are poems of ache and loss and belonging and home. Poems of pain. Poems of joy. Poems of love and awakening. There's so much to smell and taste and gaze upon here. So much to sink into.
Shire's writing is clear and evocative. She paints moments of trauma and violence so succinctly, sometimes with such a sucker punch to your chest. I love her work and I'm so happy to have this full collection finally. It's one I will return to.
