About this listen

Abandoned by her hustling father, raised by her devoted mother, then battered by the winds of loss, heartbreak, and sexual assault, awarded diversity and inclusion leader and author Nikki Murphy exposes the undercurrents of resilience and faith that undergird her success in this riveting memoir-in-verse.

Home for Hurricanes provides a sobering portrayal of both the jubilance and hardening of Black girls emanating from the ghettos, and Murphy celebrates their resolve to build free and whole lives.

In her debut poetry collection, Murphy lays bare the impact of rape culture, examines notions of innocence and responsibility, and invites listeners to witness her hard-fought journey to find healing, love, and gratitude.

No matter where you are in weathering the storms of trauma, you will be reminded you are built to withstand.
