Product Description

Review

"Brown Eyes aims to do what few books in Britain have done before: give voice to the creative expressions of black and mixed-race women. Clearly an ambitious task, but one that editor Nicole Moore has succeeded in fulfilling admirably." New Nation "This anthology serves up an excellent collection of poems, interviews and essays." Pulsar "Packed full of the most wondrous creative expression... it'll be your best buy of the year." Intermix.org.uk

Product Description

This is a collection of poetry and autobiographical writing from a diverse group of black and mixed-race women - everyday women expressing themselves in their own, unique style. Some of the contributions explode with energy, others speak with softness, some discuss childhood, motherhood and love, while others deal with loss. All offer the chance to see life through 'new' eyes. As well as being a contribution towards Black British literature, Brown Eyes celebrates, reflects and embraces the diversity of female identity and the common experiences of women living in the UK. Previously unheard yet talented writers share their perspectives on gender, race, culture, heritage, ethnicity and identity, providing a permanent record of creativity in our 21st Century Lives.

This review is from: Brown Eyes: A Selection of Creative Expressions by Black and Mixed-race Women (Paperback)
This book touches your heart and soul. I wish there were more books like this for me to share with my daughters. Each individual writing takes you from laughter, joy, understanding, peace acceptance. A must read for all women not just women of colour.

This review is from: Brown Eyes: A Selection of Creative Expressions by Black and Mixed-race Women (Paperback)
A Wonderful compilation of beautifully written poems and short stories exploring the diversity in women of colour.

To pick a favourite would be difficult as each page was a unique piece of work from the heart that made me laugh and cry. In brief this is a well written and entertaining book, every page a new discovery that will leave you wanting more.
