Book: Wounded In The House Of A Friend "A searing new book. . . . (Sanchez's) poetry and prose ask the reader to risk dizziness, to attempt to catapult the body beyond book covers, to be ready for more of what's out there".Kimiko Hahn, Philadelphia INQUIRER. "Raw and lyrical prose exploring the pain, self-doubt and anger in women's lives".ESSENCE. "Sanchez's most risk-taking adventure. . . . She makes us think".Haki Madhubuti, EMERGE.
Renowned African-American poet Sonia Sanchez explores the pain, self-doubt, and anger that emerge in women's lives: an unfaithful life partner, a brutal rape, the murder of a woman by her granddaughter, the ravages of drugs. Sanchez transforms the unspoken and sometimes violent betrayals of our lives into a liberating vision of connection in emotional redemption, compassion, and self-fulfillment.
