$13.83
Im this second collection of poems, Jamal aims to dig deeper into generational trauma, ultimately finding healing through story telling in poetic form.
Author of Dear Black Child and Dear Muslim Child states: "Between sips of chai and whispers of prayer, 'The Lavender I Lost' takes readers on an intimate voyage of identity and belonging. In this stunning second collection, Jamal weaves together threads of heritage, faith, and resistance with remarkable tenderness. Her verses dance between raw confrontations with colonialism and delicate moments of divine praise, creating a tapestry that feels both deeply personal and universally resonant. Like the ritual of brewing tea, these poems are steep in memory and tradition, asking us: what parts of our roots do we carry forward? What must we leave behind? Rather than offering easy answers, Jamal creates a sacred space for readers to explore their own truths and emerge transformed.
A fearless exploration of what it means to stand in the fullness of who you are, here and now." Four chapters, named for the four seasons: when summer falls, when fall is fun, when winter calls, and when spring has begun, take you through the seasons of life.
