Landscape with Headless Mama: Poems by Jennifer Givhan
4.0
Poetry isn’t something I often grab, it just isn’t a genre I feel I have the taste or skills for comparatively. I picked this up per recommendation from the artisan geek on YouTube. They recommend this collection of poems for their readathon fortnight frights.
However, with Latinx heritage month happening I decided to pick this read up sooner! While I still don’t think I will run to pick up poetry this collection of poems is so incredibly haunting and reflective of this author’s love of their culture and literature. It’s rooted deep in varying reflections of motherhood in a way I think all reads can connect to. If you are looking for poetry to read I recommend you read this!
