[Like] Lucile Clifton... Romaine's lyrical voice unmasks the hard truths of our human condition, particularly the oppression of women, through her unique use of diction, syntax, and extraordinary imagery, which engages the intellect and speaks to the souls of her readers
- Dr. Catherine Humphrey, IAWP UCR Fellow
Washington's book of poetry zeros in on the unique challenges women face in our modern world, and does it with unwavering strength.
