This collection showcases poetry and comics that are seamlessly merged to create unique and purposeful graphic narratives. A variety of perspectives and experiences of womanhood and gender are showcased here, written and drawn by talented and esteemed people of different ages and backgrounds, all with important messages to impart to us, the reader.

While poetry interests me, I know little about it as an art form, so I did have difficulty interpreting meaning from some of the texts. The study guide at the end of the book was invaluable for me, as it allowed me to further my understanding and appreciation for what I had just read, and think more deeply about each piece.

I would recommend this anthology to other readers. Even if you're like me and aren't practiced at reading poetry, you will likely find words and images here that will strongly resonate with you.
