Synopsis

A poetry compilation recounting a woman's journey from
self-loathing to self-acceptance, confusion to clarity, and bitterness
to forgiveness

Following in the footsteps of such category killers as Milk and Honey and Whiskey Words & a Shovel I,
Fariha Ro´isi´n's poetry book is a collection of her thoughts as a
young, queer, Muslim femme navigating the difficulties of her
intersectionality. Simultaneously, this compilation unpacks the
contentious relationship that exists between Ro´isi´n and her mother,
her platonic and romantic heartbreaks, and the cognitive dissonance felt
as a result of being so divided among her broad spectrum of identities.
