continuous

In this debut collection of haikus, Aly Luna explores the stages of healing from abuse and trauma in four sections: (un)true love, (d/t)rauma, heartbr(ache), and (re/dis)covery. This collection is personal to the poet, falling under the category of confessional poetry while still allowing for readers to be in the poet's shoes. It is the poet's hope that readers will feel recognized and find comfort in these pages, or else learn something about the reality of living with a traumatic past. Growth and healing are never linear, so we can always come back to the beginning of this book and explore the healing journey continuously.
