Between Sunsets by Yvette J. Green

$17.99

 

Between Sunsets is a heartfelt exploration of middle-aged womanhood. The women in these poems set aside their own needs and desires to serve others in ways that are alternately beautiful and heartbreakingly toxic. Ultimately, though, this collection celebrates the strength women find in their “wrought iron love” and in “the release of all the unworthiness they have told me to feel.”
–Jenn Koiter, author of So Much of Everything 

 

“Alternating between sharing insight on crafting a poem and insight on losing someone close, Yvette Green‘s poetry collection chooses love at every turn of the page. An ode to survival through divorce, death and incessant busyness, Green’s poems are thoughtful reflections that tug on heartstrings, question Providence and memorializes the sacredness of female friendships. A full-bodied offering that will resonate with anyone who has suffered and survived.”
–Khadijah Z. Ali-Coleman, author of For the Girls Who Do Too Much and The Summoning of Black Joy.
