Homegirls and Handgrenades

About This Book
ISBN13: 9781893996809 |
Powells.com Staff Pick
Winner of the American Book Award, Homegirls and Handgrenades is strong, heroic, and deeply moving. The poems, ranging from haiku to fairly
traditional free verse to longish story-like poems, are devastating. They
speak of drugs and loyalty, politics and love, in a way that few books do.
Read this marvelous book; cherish it. Make it a part of you. It's that kind of book.
