What I loved about this collection of poetry is the openness & reflection within the writing. Even though I haven’t personally experienced all of the events that Celli went through, I am appreciative of the sincerity with which the experiences are shared in order to give a voice to those that have gone through this kind of intimate partner violence and the lingering effects it has. I believe this collection gives insight to a viewpoint that is important for people to hear about and understand, even if they haven’t experienced it themselves. I feel many readers can learn from this book because it gives way to a voice that may be different from their own, which benefits building an insight into others’ experiences. I also think many readers can find healing and connection from this book too. It was beautifully written in a raw, real way, that takes a lot of courage to share with the world.
