Amazon.com description: Product Description: This is a collection of poetry and autobiographical writing from a diverse group of black and mixed-race women - everyday women expressing themselves in their own, unique style. Some of the contributions explode with energy, others speak with softness, some discuss childhood, motherhood and love, while others deal with loss. All offer the chance to see life through 'new' eyes. As well as being a contribution towards Black British literature, Brown Eyes celebrates, reflects and embraces the diversity of female identity and the common experiences of women living in the UK. Previously unheard yet talented writers share their perspectives on gender, race, culture, heritage, ethnicity and identity, providing a permanent record of creativity in our 21st Century Lives.
