And Then Thoughts

Olga Foreign's And Then Thoughts, is a powerful and evocative collection of poetic reflections on life, identity, struggle, and the human experience. With unfiltered honesty and a lyrical depth, Foreign captures the raw emotions of love, pain, resilience, and transformation.

The book is a journey through the mind of a keen observer-someone who has lived, learned, and emerged with hard-earned wisdom. Each piece resonates with deep introspection, whether it addresses personal trauma, societal injustice, or the quiet moments of beauty that exist in the everyday.

Standout pieces such as "Did You Not See Me", "Silent Mirror", and "I Did Me" showcase Foreign's ability to blend poetic storytelling with sharp social commentary. Themes of racial inequality, gender dynamics, survival, and personal growth are interwoven throughout, making this collection both deeply personal and universally relevant.

With her signature style of sharp social commentary and deeply personal narratives, Foreign tackles subjects such as race, womanhood, survival, and the human condition. Each piece resonates with authenticity, challenging readers to reflect on their own lives and the world around them.

Foreign's writing is not for the faint of heart-it challenges, provokes, and forces the reader to confront uncomfortable truths. Yet, within its pages, there is also healing, empowerment, and an undeniable celebration of resilience. This isn't just poetry-it's a journey through the human experience. Some pieces will challenge you; some will comfort you, and others will leave you speechless. If you appreciate books that make you feel-really feel-then I highly recommend picking up a copy.

For those who appreciate poetry that is both thought-provoking and soul-stirring, And Then Thoughts, is must-read.
