Washing Water is a poetry collection that lilts life through the eyes of Caribbean girls and women across the African diaspora. The poems weave vignettes of ancestor-women, known and unknown, who have lived the fat belly of life and understand its joys and imperfections. The poems in Washing Water entwine stories, lived and dreamed, from little girl into womanhood-stories that hold hands with ancestors and progeny to talk together of rain and wash water.
