Description: * A popular collection of poems from the award-winning writer and poet * 'The feisty Fat Black Woman takes on politicians, the slimming industry, fatness, blackness, and womanhood' Guardian
Synopsis: Grace Nichols gives us images that stare us straight in the eye, images of joy, challenge, accusation. Her 'fat black woman' is brash; rejoices in herself; poses awkward questions to politicians, rulers, suitors, to a white world that still turns its back. Grace Nichols writes in a language that is wonderfully vivid yet economical of the pleasures and sadnesses of memory, of loving, of 'the power to be what I am, a woman, charting my own futures'.
