These poems really are massive food for thought. They’re not traditional English poetry (which would be my preferred style), but I endjoyed quite a few of them anyway. It makes you think about how you perceive and treat yourselfe, the people in your life and the world on a whole. I love diving deep into those thoughts - rattling with them until I’ve found what my stance on it is. There were still two things that made it not reach 5 stars: 1) With some of the poems I felt a bit uncomfortable because they gave so much insight into the life, thoughts and struggles of a stranger (the author). I see that it can help people to realise that they’re not alone in their pain but sometimes it was just too much for me. 2) In my opinion, it’s not very commendable to hav a poem with 5 or so words on one page and the next poem on the next page. As someone who likes creative ans aesthetically pleasing things, I totally get it. But if you print it to sell it it just leaves a bitter aftertaste. If you are into modern and simplistic (NOT simple) poetry you’ll most likely enjoy this book.

Ein wunderschöner Gedichtsband aus dem Stärke und Selbstbewusstsein für Frauen spricht. Die Sprache und Art und Weise der Gedichte hinterlässt einen bleibenden Eindruck und obwohl die meisten Gedichte sehr kurz sind, erzählen sie in wenigen Strophen ganze Geschichten, das fand ich sehr eindrücklich. Super lesbar auch für nicht Gedichtleser*innen. Ich lese normalerweise selber auch keine Gedichtsbände, aber dieses Buch gehört nun zu der grossen Sammlung meiner Lieblingsbücher.
