Poetry Collections

Prayers Like Shoes

Whit Press, in partnership with Hedgebrook, is proud to present this magnificent new collection of poetry from highly acclaimed writer and poet Ruth Forman.

Renaissance

Renaissance, Ruth Forman’s second collection, speaks of the timeless themes of family, death, love, and rebirth in the inimitable voice Booklist called “sexy, bittersweet, funny, feisty, and real.” With poetry that conveys a defiant, enlivened spirit and has won her acclaim, Ruth Forman measures the losses and celebrates the future of a generation.

We Are The Young Magicians

“In these pages you will find the sensuality of an Alice Walker, the revolutionary fervor of a June Jordan, the mule-stubbornness of a Zora Neale Hurston.”
Cherrie Moraga
