pickI rarely read much poetry and when I️ do, I️ like to go back to it every now and again to digest it slowly, but I read this in one setting. I️ couldn‘t help it. Not every poem is pretty and flows easily. Some are quite purposely jarring and crass. I️ love them all the same. Calling it now, Flose Boursiquot is going to be huge. I‘m honored to have her first published book.
Every time I go to buy books, I try to grab something at random in a genre I️ usually don‘t buy. This time I picked up Flose Boursiquot‘s debut book of poetry. Her work is so raw and feminist, bravely shining light on the current issues that plague our nation and world, including but not limited to, racism, white privilege, misogyny, sexual assault, and class inequalities. She‘s a powerful voice for this generation.
