Beyond the Watershed

Om Beyond the Watershed

A hybrid collection that explores the dual nature of water as both a destructive and healing force, mirroring the experiences of Black women and girls. Nadia Alexis's Beyond the Watershed is a collection of poetry and award-winning photography--two mediums that speak to each other and expand the watershed moments influenced by life-changing events. Alexis delves into trauma, identity, healing, and survival through the lens of a Haitian American mother and daughter's experiences. These poems depict journeys from abuse to freedom, including the moments of joy in between, while contemplating the connection between the Black female experience and the natural world. Even though "there's no choice / in how the wounding is served," this striking poetic and visual account is a story of survival through love.
