Poetry Chap Book
This poetry book was created by a group of amazing women called Circle, a diverse group of women at various stages in their writing lives, connecting through an intimate love of language. Circle was founded at Room Project in Detroit. They meet weekly to read, write, and talk about poetry centered on BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, and People of Color) women writers.
When we read this book we found it provides the reader with a taste of emotions and feelings. The poems make you feel something that connects and engages you to continue reading until the end.
