I have been a fan of Warsan Shire since the days of Tumblr. Did you know she is also the poet behind Beyoncé’s Lemonade? She has a couple of chapbooks but this is her first full-length poetry collection and it was excellent! Full of deeply moving poems about womanhood, immigrants and refugees, and life. I think this poetry is highly accessible and I would highly recommend checking it out!
