Pieces of my Mother's Daughter

Pieces of My Mother's Daughter is a collection of prose poems that move through grief like an inheritance.In fragments of memory, confession, and reflection, the complicated daughter of an equally complicated mother unravels what it means to grow up unseen, to long for love that never arrives, and to carry both resentment and tenderness in the same breath. These pieces portray raw portraits of survival like trust fractured, womanhood misunderstood, intimacy withheld, and the body left to carry what no one else would.They span themes of motherhood, love, invisibility, feminism, and self sabotage, this book builds a structure out of brokenness, allowing grief to be both wound and architecture.It is for the woman that has learned that love and loss often come wrapped in the same hand.
