There will not be change until all voices are heard.
In this compelling collection of one hundred villanelle sonnets, Cláudia Cassoma amplifies the voices of women who dare to question, resist, heal, dream and redefine themselves. Published in celebration of International Women's Day, Not For Flowers explores themes such as identity, friendship, solitude, courage, love, intimacy, freedom, femininity and social change.
Through poetry that is at once intimate and defiant, the speaker confronts limiting beliefs, challenges inherited expectations and celebrates the fullness of womanhood in all its complexity. Each poem becomes an invitation to reflect, to reclaim one's voice and to imagine a more equitable future.
More than a collection of poems, Not For Flowers is a call to self-discovery, empowerment and collective transformation. It is reflection, warning, praise and an enduring celebration of the courage required to become fully oneself.
