Description
In this powerful collection of poetry, Nikki Giovanni explores mothers and children, childhood memories, Black leaders, and the enduring spirit of Black Africa. Emotional and autobiographical, the poems transform the political into something deeply personal, examining identity, heritage, love, and the search for belonging. At the heart of the collection is a vision of personal freedom and self-definition: a woman claiming the right to shape her own life, voice, and “house” in all its complexity and glory.
