Description

I Shimmer Sometimes, Too by Porsha Olayiwola is a powerful poetry collection that celebrates black womanhood and community-care. With each poem, Olayiwola breaks down barriers and reimagines the possibilities of form, creating a luminous and magical reading experience. Through her words, Olayiwola plumbs a rich tapestry of resilience, weaving together pungent language and poignant storytelling to create a work that is both disorienting and deeply educational. This debut collection establishes Olayiwola firmly in the lineage of black queer poetics, while also offering a unique perspective on self-care and community-building. Advance praise for this book praises its ability to transform language into something elastic and kaleidoscopic, creating a cinematic and enchanting reading experience that is both joyful and thought-provoking.
