I haven‘t written poetry in what feels like forever, but these verses are unlocking something in me and I‘m finally scratching down a few lines and ideas! It‘s such a relief! ✍🏼🗒️🤍

This book was a combination of short stories and two novellas. Spare, beautiful writing that pulls you into the stories. Detailed description of clothing and settings. Endings with a punch. A member of the Harlem Renaissance, Nella Larsen was chosen for the New York Times project Overlooked. Obituaries were written posthumously of historic women who were overlooked. #booked2023 #ashortstorycollection #mttbr
Current read.
I enjoy Hughes writing, this is a coming of age story, with a focus on a cast of characters around our main character Sandy.
His aunt who runs away with the circus is of course my favorite, and I liked how there is a conversation around education which feels timeless.
