Introducing Sanctuary Nest, a powerful debut chapbook by Connie Yu that explores the human experience of trauma, love, and finding solace. Divided into five distinct sections, this poetry collection takes readers on a journey through the author's life as a Chinese-Calgarian.

The first section, Those Early Perils, sets the tone with Whirring of the Airplane and Those Years, showcasing the author's vulnerability and strength in facing adversity in her youth.

Moving on to Hardship of The Home and Soul, the second section of the chapbook, readers are taken on a vivid journey through The Rabbit and The Fever Dream, Roman Giants and Russian Oligarchs, Skylarks, Copper Fixiation, A Jar of Feathers, and Origami Cranes. Through these powerful poems, the author explores the complexities of the human soul and the challenges that come with finding one's place in the world.

The third section, Into The Rivers, takes a contemplative turn, with poems such as Earl Grey Tea and Dandelion Neck exploring the beauty and wonder of healing and heartbreak.

In Guardian of The Home, the fourth section of the chapbook, readers are invited to explore the author's personal journey through Vagabond Soul and The Winter's Cicadas, delving deep into the heart of the human experience helping vulnerable populations.

Finally, the chapbook concludes with Sanctuary Nest, a section that captures the joy and safety of life with poems such as Peanut Butter: The Talented Cat, Lover's Scooter Ride, Gizzard: The Wizard, and Last Minute Dinner Plans.

Yu's Sanctuary Nest is a captivating and powerful debut chapbook that is not to be missed. With its raw honesty, heartfelt emotion, and beautiful imagery, this collection of poems is sure to leave readers feeling both inspired and deeply moved.
