Roots and Romance: A Black Woman's Journey to Adulthood (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798275730111)

Kinara Philllips' debut poetry book Roots and Romance takes the reader on an intimate journey through her past, present and imagined future. Poems such as My Ancestry is Poetry and The Past ground the reader before continuing to the romance and adulthood sections. There, Phillips contemplates how to love and how to become her best self.

As the collection moves into themes of romance and adulthood, Phillips explores the complexity of modern Black womanhood - the desire for connection, the struggle to wait for what's real, and the ongoing process of becoming one's best self. With honesty, warmth, and a voice both youthful and wise, Roots and Romance reveals the beauty of knowing where you come from and the courage it takes to imagine what comes next.
