Shapeshifter - Lauren E. Bowman

L.E. Bowman''s latest collection Shapeshifter aches with the soft sorrows and hard-won joys of life. Melodic and introspective, Bowman''s poems converse-struggling with grief and hopelessness while fighting for love and recovery. Shapeshifter grounds the reader in the body, ever transforming with age and experience. Reckoning with self-image, heartbreak, and motherhood, this collection emphasises the beauty in mundanity - the journey that is life. Bowman''s Shapeshifter embraces the fear of an ever-changing and vulnerable existence, encouraging the reader to live in spite and because of that fear. It''s a truly touching collection that can''t be missed!
