Salt. is a journey through warmth and sharpness. this collection of poetry explores the realities of multiple identities, language, diasporic life & pain, the self, community, healing, celebration, and loveNayyirah Waheed is considered "the maybe most famous poet on Instagram”, and rightly so. Her book ‘salt’, touched me deeply, so that I was inspired to read her second book ’Nejma’, published in 2015. In her own, unique writing style, the author captures the reader once more with her beautiful poetry that cover many topics such as feminism, life, relationships, and race. Her poetry is strong and powerful, sometimes like a cry, sometimes like a storm, but always full of wisd0m.
