About the Book'soft magic.' is the debut collection of prose and poetry by Malawian writer, Upile Chisala. This book explores the self, joy, blackness, gender, matters of the heart, the experience of Diaspora, spirituality and most of all, how we survive. 'soft magic.' is a shared healing journey.
About the Author
Upile is a storyteller, sociologist and artivist from Malawi. She is the author of two books of poetry, soft magic and Nectar. Born in 1994 and raised in Zomba, Upile's hope is to tell stories from the margins and through her work help others and herself come to terms with pasts, celebrate presents and confidently dream beautiful futures.
I found the poetry in this book to be very positive and inspiring. The author sends a message to women of color to love themselves and embrace their inner beauty. If you have Kindle Unlimited, this is a free selection.
