| Publisher Description: Fourteen to Fortyish: The Formative years is a collection of poems that traces the relationships of a girl of fourteen to a woman in her forties. Like the growth from girl to woman the poems in this collection also mature. Claudia Williams has written a book of love poems like no other. Claudia Williams began writing the poems in fourteen to Fortyish: The Formative Years when she was a young girl new to love and relationships and continued on into adulthood. Like the poet herself the poems mature with the different periods in her life. This collection of poems is unlike other love poem collections in that it addresses the failings of relationships and the blindness of love. In this collection of poems, Claudia Williams has captured the struggle of every young girl and woman with relationships and love. While these poems have been through an extensive revision and editing process, Claudia was careful to maintain the naivety of the earlier poems allowing the reader to experience the youthful ignorance that we all experience in relationships.

Contributor Bio(s): Williams, Claudia: - "Claudia Williams has been writing - journal entries, poems, short stories, novellas - since her early teens. At Fortyish, she finally found the courage to publish this part of herself told in poetry over decades. For those who are able to relate, she hopes this anthology will be like a hand to hold. She has done many public readings of her poems to receptive audiences and much acclaim. Claudia is Jamaican-Canadian, and lives in Ontario, Canada." |
