    Good Advice
  

*by V***N on Reviewed in the United States on July 30, 2013*

I stumbled up on Warsan Shire and her poetry a few years ago on Twitter.  I was a fan of her tweets prior to reading any of her poetry.  A line or two of one of Warsan Shire's poems was tweeted into my timeline last night and on a whim I decided to download Teaching My Mother How to Give Birth. These poems are still speaking to me and I'm listening.Warsan Shire has one of those poetic voices that stir instead of soothe. These poems  will linger and hover around you and in your subconscious for days, weeks, and years to come. There are some lines that kick and punch others that pinch. These are poems that inspire and empower.These are a few lines from some of my favorite poems from this collection:Bone  "What is she hungry for?"Beauty  "Anything that leaves her mouth sounds like sex. Our mother has banned her from saying God's name."Ugly "...her hands are a civil war, a refugee camp behind each ear,..."My absolute favorite was the last and shortest of the collection, "In Love and In War." I read these poems in one sitting. I plan on reading them over and over and over again.

    Revelatory
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on June 30, 2018*

The title is tantalizing and you open the pages  because you want to discover what she means. And what you find is Warsan is unafraid. At least in the way that when you begin to delve in to the words of her poetry, you start to see her nakedness, vulnerability. She seems unafraid to be plain, unafraid to be esoteric, unafraid to relate.It may be obvious that some of the pieces do not seem to have been churned and refined over time; but each piece seems to form a chain to create this formidable tapestry.Because of its apparent sincerity in the writer’s intention to share her thoughts, Teaching My Mother How To Give Birth may well be a book of instruction. On self scrutiny and unconditional self acceptance.
