Adele Evershed on "Red Threads and Silver Linings: A Woman's Life in Haiku" | Author Interview – Prolific Pulse Press Podcast

What does it mean to live in a woman's body? Poet Adele Evershed joins Prolific Pulse Press to talk about her new haiku collection, "Red Threads and Silver Linings: A Woman's Life in Haiku, One Bloody Drop at a Time".The collection traces womanhood through the body's cycles: first periods, love, pregnancy and loss, childbirth, motherhood, menopause and the "reblooming" that comes after. Adele's haiku are tender, raw, funny and unflinchingly honest. In them, blood and blossom, grief and humor sit side by side."Red Threads and Silver Linings is a celebration of the female body in all its complexity. It is bloody, funny, uncomfortable, tender, occasionally heartbreaking, and wonderfully honest."— Munmun Samanta, author of *Yellow Chrysanthemum*📖 Paperback releases October 20, 2026 Pre-Order now this #1 New Release in Haiku and Japanese PoetryOrder your copy:https://www.prolificpulse.com/adeleevershedAmazon: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0HLCJCPK2Barnes & Noble: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/red-threads-and-silver-linings-adele-evershed/1151491557?ean=9798952428065Walmart: https://www.walmart.com/ip/21128006674Author page: https://www.prolificpulse.com/adeleevershedAbout Adele Evershed:Adele is a Welsh writer who swapped the Valleys for the American East Coast.

Book Review – “Different Sides of the Same Coin”

Lisa Tomey-Zonneveld

You can listen to the review of this wonderful book on the Prolific Pulse Poetry Podcast

AND it is also viewable of YouTube. I am amazed with this book, the more I hear the poems, the more I read, the more I am emotionally charged with an awareness. Chyrel J. Jackson spoke at the recent Coffee Table Talk about social justice. Her message was spot on and prolific. I highly recommend this book. Two sisters, two different styles of writing, two passionate poets, who bring it more than 100% They are a formidable force and I suggest that you pay attention to them. These ladies are meant to be heard. Check out this YouTube for my review and there’s an Amazon link should you decide it is a must have in your library.
