Coconut Palm Kind of Woman - Paperback

by Nimi Finnigan (Author)

Coconut Palm Kind of Woman by Nimi Finnigan is a chapbook of poems which explores identity and place. As the poems travel across different landscapes, the island of Haiti and American territories such as Pennsylvania, Louisiana, and West Texas, multiple identities emerge - mother, lover, granddaughter, exile, immigrant - and intimately engage with the different environments. It's a collection of poems about life, about moments of intimacy and isolation with Haiti and its rich history always in the background.
