Fifty One: A book of spells and other poems

"We are magicians; let our words write us." This first collection of poetry from Victoria Evans consists of fifty one poems written in the year the author was fifty one years old. The poems are poignant ("Fat is a feminist issue", "Time does not heal"), playful ("Life's a bitch", "Sweet aftermath"), and challenging ("The bomber", "Sequoia song"). Together they offer a celebration of the power of poetry to express, transform and heal.
