Publisher's Synopsis
In a world where women of color are incessantly bombarded with warring ideals, The Woman with Sandpaper Skin affirms the power of the feminine. The poetry included in this collection weaves a unique coming of age story from the perspective of an outspoken, hypersensitive, brown woman in America. It provides an accounting of both wounds suffered, and the salve that soothes them. The Woman with Sandpaper Skin is a raw and compelling collection of poetry and prose for women interested in self-improvement, empowerment, and healing.
