Letter to Young Sisters and Other Poems by Nancy Dupree

"You are invited to take [these] poems, fold them neatly, and tuck them away in the corner of your soul reserved for food." Dupree’s vibrant nature is matched only by the passion which emanates from her poems and particularly in this collection dedicated to the issues faced by the African-American woman. Though Dupree writes her letter to "Young Sisters," these poems are for all women—mothers, daughters, sisters, nieces and aunts of all ages.
