Break-Up Hair & Other Poems explores the possibility of new beginnings, through the lens of a single woman of a certain age three years after a heartbreaking failed marriage. The author-now wiser, stronger, and fearless-shares her new sense of self through iconic feminine images drawn from myth, film, and pop culture. Trusting in the healing nature of poetry and art, the poet offers a varied collection to help all women find their unique strength.
"A scrumptious collection of verse that is at times sweet, savory, tangy, piquant, bitter, hearty and, oh my, even spicy."
-Theo Czuk, novelist & songsmith
"In Grace Richards' marvelous chapbook,
Break-Up Hair, the woman blossoms. These poems, strewn with rose petals, orchids, lilies, and lavender, both delighted and inspired me."
-Alexis Rhone Fancher, poetry editor, Cultural Daily
"A thoroughly enjoyable journey in 23 poems."
-C. Steven Blue, managing editor, Arrowcloud Press
