The Voice of One Woman
The Voice of One Woman is the first book By Adepero Mettabel Okulaja, MD,
a practicing internal medicine physician in Bloomington, Minnesota.
It is best described as an anthology of poems, prose, original quotes, anecdotes, and messages, referencing relevant biblical scriptures. It primarily deals with self-image and how to embrace who you are, and all of who you are and believe that you are “fearfully and wonderfully made”. This work was borne out of the experiences that shaped her life, particularly those that led her to accept herself as the woman God created her to be. Passionate living and bold femininity are explored through poetry and prose in this text. Be prepared to change as you contemplate scripture and the musings of the author.
