Letters to My Father (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781646622672)

Juanita Kirton's poetry collection is compelling, delivering a story of opposing forces of love and betrayal. The poems are brave and courageous and are found in tight spaces of kitchens, a church and a child's heart. Kirton breaks the barriers of silence and holds her own, turning the silence of despair into the found voice of a female spiritual warrior. She uses language so close to the bone, you feel as if you are on a motorcycle with her in the poem titled, "Back Seat". This collection is magnificent, a must read.
