First 30: A Collection of a Woman's Poems about Love and Lust, Pain and Abuse, Divorce, Womanhood, Searching and Rediscovery

First Thirty is a raw, sensual and uncensored collection of poetry about love and lust, pain and abuse, womanhood, divorce, searching and rediscovery. It is a peek into the beautiful recital of a woman persona's internal dialogue and memories about the joys and struggles through the different phases in her life.


The anthology splits these phases in 5, namely Her Pain, Her Lust, Her Wander, Her Truth and Her Strengths. It is also a book about freedom from judgment from our untold truths and shame. It brings to light a lot of issues that are blanketed in any patriarchal society especially the African society.
