Divida by Monica A. Hand (Alice James Books, paperback)
Publication Date: April 17, 2018
Publisher Marketing: Published posthumously, this powerful second collection is a raw dialogue about being black in today's society, exploring injustices survived by using a dream-like consciousness to take on multiple personas: DiVida, who wants to assimilate into the larger culture, and Sapphire, who refuses to follow at the expense of her self-actualization.
