Revolutionary Petunias and Other Poems
Revolutionary Petunias and Other Poems | Alice Walker
8 posts | 4 read | 4 to read
These poems are about revolutionaries and lovers-about how, both in revolution and in love, loss of trust and compassion robs us of hope. They are also about (and for) those few embattled souls who remain painfully committed to beauty and to love even while facing the firing squad. " Quick, direct, witty, pungent" (DeWitt Beall, Chicago Daily News).

I don't normally read poetry, but I picked this up when I spotted it since this woman wrote The Color Purple, and I'm certainly interested in literature (especially from a Black perspective) concerning the southern US since I lived in lower Alabama until 20 years old. #poetry #seasonsreadings2016
