Say Her Name by Zetta Elliott

5.0

This was a fantastic, beautiful, wonderful compilation of poems. I read nearly all of these out loud–and they deserved to be. These poems are meant to be spoken, to be heard. Each poem gave me nonstop chills, and I wish I could share these with absolutely everyone. They need to be shared. I want to claim these poems, but I know they aren’t for me. But please, everyone, read them. Share them.

Elliott employs different styles of poetry, and it makes me wonder if it’s talent that Elliott has, or if hard work and probably multiple revisions have made her writing as successful as it is.

I can’t suggest reading this enough. It’s colorful, magical, and makes poetry more beautiful than it already is.
