In Conversation - Paperback

by Janice M. Whyne (Author)

In Conversation is a personal milestone in Janice Whyne's journey of rediscovering her creative self. She sees poetry as a means of self-expression. A conduit and a safe space for our emotions, feelings and lived experiences.

All the poems in In Conversation began their life with a word(s) or line exchanged in conversation, or that captured her attention while she was viewing or listening to something. She regards them as articulations of the said and unsaid, with the poetic voice in them not always hers but rather an expression or interpretation of the voice(s) of others.

Themes of life, loss, love, protest and more are awaiting all who choose to engage in conversation with these poems. Readers have described In Conversation as unapologetic, raw, poignant, vulnerable and brave; a journey. 'It speaks of someone that feels and loves much for this world, the wonderful imperfect people in it, and the injustices that go on.'
