Publisher Samantha Kolber’s book Birth of a Daughter is a Poetry Winner with the 2023 San Francisco Book Festival! Check out the full list of winners at this link, and Congrats 🎉 to all!

Birth of a Daughter, published in 2020 by Kelsay Books, explores the physical and emotional transformations a woman experiences on the journey to and through motherhood. The poet exposes the disappearing, artistic self among the chaos and anxiety of pregnancy complications, birth, wakeful nights, breastfeeding, postpartum depression, and parenting, while also exploring the complex relationship of being a motherless daughter.

Kolber wishes to thank Book Award Pro for helping her book get matched with this award opportunity. Rootstock recommends this service to any author or small publisher to help their books find awards.
