Body Talk - Paperback

by Takwa Gordon (Author)

Blending poetry and nonfiction prose into a hybrid memoir brimming with humanity, Takwa Gordon's Body Talk explores being bipolar, Black, a refugee, a woman, a Muslim, a child sexual abuse survivor, and a first-generation college student in America. At once a narrative of trauma and disruption, Gordon also investigates the power of love and community, and ultimately what healing looks like for a Black-American trying to carve out a story, and a future, of her own.
