nect. She writes about women’s
strengths and weaknesses in a
variety of poetry forms which
offer an honest look at the hap-
piness, hope, and frustration of
female roles. She connects each
poem with a moment in time from

Girlfriends Teach Me,” reminding
readers to reflect and move for-
ward. A stunning selection of po-
ems in Baer’s confident voice to in-
spire introspection and discussion.
“The Final Revival of Opal and Nev,”
by Dawnie Walton
An amazing debut novel that reads
like a history of a famous rock ‘n’ roll
duo, Opal Jewel and Neville Charles,
in the 1970s in New York. Opal, an
Afro-Punk goddess and Nev, a Brit-
ish songwriter, meet at a bar’s ama-
teur night in Detroit. She takes him
up on his offer to sign on to Rivington
Records and the rock band is formed.
From small rock clubs in the East Village
to touring, “the music is fire and passion
and soul.“ Opal strives to find her voice
amidst sexism and systemic racism. Can
the stars survive the struggles of their
stardom? Years later, when a musical
journalist and musician’s daughter writes
her story, the interviews reveal the real
story right on time for their big reunion
show. Written in alternating chapters
from Opal, Nev, family members, and
past band members, each voice brings
light to their lyrical journey. Music
lovers will wish the duo was real. Wal-
ton writes an immersive story about a
woman compelled to speak her truth
— whether about politics or feminist
power — regardless of the conse-
quences.
