Book Description
In Before the Palm Could Bloom, Wesley writes poems of the Liberian civil war and the devastation it has wrought.

From the Publisher
In Before the Palm Could Bloom, Patricia Jabbeh Wesley writes poems of the Liberian civil war and of the devastation it has wrought. And in poems of village life and customs, the city life of Monrovia, the rites of childhood and adolescence, Wesley records for the reader a world that has been forever changed. Wesley's poems incorporate many African voices, and range in tone from sorrow and longing to humor and ironic wit.
