description: Swallowing Watermelons is Karla Brundage´s first published poetry collection and contains almost twenty years of her writing. Her poems are deeply honest, personal reflections--vivid stories from the heart cut to the bone. Moving between Hawaii, the mainland United States and Zimbabwe, she shares moments in her life as a daughter growing into a woman, as a lover, a mother, and single parent.Ishmael Reed Publishing Company, an independent small press whose distinguished list of titles includes fiction and poetry works by writing luminaries Boadiba, Victor Hernandez Cruz, William Demby, Sister Goodwin, Colleen McElroy, Lorenzo Thomas, Quincy Troupe, and Shawn Wong, has utilized the print-on-demand technology of Xlibris to make Ms. Brundage’s poetry widely available.
