The selected poems included in From These Roots chronicles Georgette Norman's well-lived life through keen-eyed observations about love, politics, race, and all the many joys and sorrows of surviving each day with grace and self-reflection. Tackling a wide range of subjects from the personal to the political to the communal to the cultural to the historical, Norman provides us an eyewitness account of the last eight decades of her life in poems that are lyrically beautiful, clever, and unwilling to turn a blind eye or hold their tongues. This is the work of a woman who has seen some things, and her poems vibrate off the page as if they have been waiting a long time to have their say.
