    Humourous, honest poems
  

*by C***E on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 16 July 2014*

This is the sort of book I am glad that my university course made me read as I know that I would never have picked it up otherwise. When I first started reading the poems I was indifferent, but the more I read the more I liked them. On their own the poems are fine, but they work much better united in a collection. I wouldn't mark this collection as a favourite, however I found it hard not to like the often humorous and deceptively simple poems which have a real honesty. I don't 'relate' to the poems, but still really enjoyed them. I've had this book for a few years and still open it up to read again.

A book that is meant to empower women (regardless of colour).Loved the writing and, more so, loved the way it left me certain of my self-worth!"Don’t be a kyatta-pillaBe a butterflyBe a butterflyThat was de life preacherand you was right."I received a diferente cover than the one in the product page but, to be honest, I rather prefer mine!

    A must have
  

*by M***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 🇬🇧 on 5 May 2014*

I bought this book because it was required reading for my English Literature degree but I love it so much I will keep it unlike some of the other books that I will be reselling.Grace Nichols uses poetry vibrant with imagery of culture, colors and fills the pages with life. You gain a sense of how she feels  the duality derived from living in two cultures. She also challenges the usual ideas of what beauty is.This was so worth reading and will read more by this author.
