Description
Deborah Alma's debut poetry collection Dirty Laundry is a bold and honest voice that shines a light on contemporary women's lives and those of our foremothers. With unflinching candour, Alma explores themes of persistence, survival, and sexual rediscovery, reclaiming the space to speak her mind and be heard. This intimate and particular collection brims with poems that air secrets, desires, and untold stories, from growing up mixed-race to tales of the countryside. With a form of robust magic, Alma's poetry is both vivid and frank, offering a remedy for heartsick and weary readers alike.
