About the Book

In Seeking Solace is the raw account of a life lived in search of love. It details a voice that, though most often strangled, continues to cry out to know and be known, to love and be loved well.

In Seeking Solace is Peni-El Raphakumwah's first published work. She is a true poet who tells of her most intimate life and love perceptions in poems such as:

  • DaddyLinks
  • Come Home with Me
  • Hold Me Down
  • Erotica
  • Love Starved
  • My Man
  • Wedding Day

    Written with Raphakumwah's innate musical sensibilities, Solace reads like a compact disc plays, complete with interludes that masterfully continue the flow of distinct, melodious, and sometimes piercing thought. Quite musical, there is a story here that never breaks its flow or its tumult; not until it reaches placidity in the final hopes of a heart left unscarred in battle, still ambulatory, and moving forward in search of a true, abiding, and everlasting love.

    In Seeking Solace For Those Who Have Never Been Loved Well but will be.
