Join disabled writers Aasiyah Bartle and Jess Gregory on their path to radical self-compassion and acceptance, even when they "can't help but feel this world wasn't made for [them]".
A reflection on the highs and lows of life that make us who we are, "Surviving Tornadoes" is a celebration of the relentless strength of trauma survivors and their ability to re-claim their voices, no matter how hard others may have tried to silence them.
This collection of poems is split into three sections: Broken Pieces - childhood and generational trauma, Loving You - challenging relationships on the journey to womanhood, and All That Remains - chronic health conditions and the way that our early relationships shape our responses to them.
Inspired by nature, folklore, and classic literature, "Surviving Tornadoes" explores these heavy topics through magical worlds, while simultaneously inviting the reader into its authors' most private, human thoughts. A sensory experience that is heightened even further by the inclusion of Aasiyah's beautiful, original illustrations.
A must-read for anyone on the courageous journey of unraveling the impact of their past.
