Overview
Avril Somerville writes about creativity, love, womanhood, community, race, and identity through personal essays and poetry. Her writing is intelligent, yet accessible and fluid. In A Journey Of Life On Purpose, Somerville offers inspiration and insight on matters of purpose, creativity, meaning, empathy, transparency, and authenticity beyond our traditional worlds of work. She maintains that regardless of what we call ourselves, we all have gifts to bring that should leave the world better than when we came. Somerville writes of the creative space as paramount yet fleeting, and of race and identity from a unique perspective as a first-generation college graduate and Black American woman immigrant. Fluid and honest, A Journey Of Life On Purpose is both proof and reminder that regardless of the differences that separate us, we can work toward a collective wholeness and personal transformation through the lens of empathy and a desire to learn more about each other and ourselves.
