The heart of a woman, and other poems by
Georgia Douglas Johnson(
Book
)
23 editions published between 1918 and 2018 in English and held by 376 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Georgia Blanche Douglas Camp Johnson published four collections of poetry. Her first volume, The Heart of a Woman, includes an introduction by William Stanley Braithwaite, who Johnson credited with inspiring her to write in the first place. Braithwaite states in the introduction that Johnson's poems are "intensely feminine and for me this means more than anything else that they are deeply human." He compares her poetry to music and song which is fitting given that Johnson was a formally trained musician having attended the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. She studied piano, voice and harmony and taught herself to play the violin
