Böcker av Julia Morgan Leatham

when a man approaches me I think he is approaching my body / this is not because I want to distrust him / I want to trust him / like I want to trust the rising tide / not to over-reach its swell / but I don''t turn my back on either In her debut collection of poems, Julia Morgan Leatham analyzes the emotion of desire through a feminist lens. Employing playful language and thought-provoking metaphors, Desire delves into honest reflections on sex, power, love, trust, and acceptance. Poems like "my sister then (or loss of innocence)" and "my sister now (or i love you)" explore how time and societal expectations shape the people we are and are becoming. Julia Morgan Leatham searches for answers amidst her own nostalgia to questions like What is truth? and Who gets to decide what is true?
