This book is a deeply felt voyage. A grand pruning. A healing.
In her debut collection, the author shares an intimate look into an unraveling, and ultimately, a resurrection. Throughout the many seasons of life, we learn again and again to rebuild from the ruins, brick by brick. Within these pages, we find a journey that leads to pain, beauty in the mundane, and the joy of contentment. The leaves of this book unfurl and open, inviting you along the process from seed to bloom.
In To Let Myself Go by Kimberly Olivera Lainez, we dive into poems that patiently revel in the heart work, perplexity, and wonder of adulthood. They reveal the beauty of the words we carry and the exhale of relief in releasing them.
