Synopsis

Far From The Tree is a poetry collection that spans three generations. Phillip, the father, was born in 1938. Phyllis, his daughter, was born in 1965. Morgan, his granddaughter, was born in 2007. Phillip challenged his daughter's poetic talents just as Phyllis now challenges her daughter, Morgan.Phillip Eugene Williams shared his love of poetry with his daughter when she was young. He taught her the power of words and to mean what you say. He brought her up on poetry written by such greats as Langston Hughes and Phillis Wheatley. It is a father-daughter bond that stood the test of time.Phyllis Williams-Strawder shared her love of poetry with her young daughter when she started writing rap lyrics. She introduced her own daughter to Langston Hughes by reciting "Mother To Son" and explaining what it means for her life journey.Morgan Patrice Strawder is a young author who writes when her mom makes her.Three people. Three generations. Three voices. Growing up in worlds that overlap and offer new challenges. Their poetic styles as different as the space in time. Phillip is militant and intellectual. Phyllis is sarcastic, emotional, and witty, Morgan is real, funny and deceptively deep. They couldn't be more alike and more different if they tried.
