Thoughts Feelings and Lovers Item Info

Title:
Thoughts Feelings and Lovers
Description:
A collection of poems that revolve around the author’s experiences, feelings, and thoughts as a woman. The first several pieces have a sorrowful and frustrated tone, as Okoro writes about being estranged from her mother, fighting against misogyny in society and in relationships, as well as the weight of “female guilt.” However, the second section of the book focuses on sexuality and love, and the last section explores self-discovery and freedom. Both highlight the triumphs of womanhood.
