Would you give up anything and everything to be yourself? This is the aftermath of transition, and I sort through the wreckage, looking for the pieces of me that still have life in them.Sadness & Sadness Accessories is a fierce and tender collection of poems that wrestles with identity, trauma, resilience, and love. Aurora Hatchel crafts verses that pulse with raw emotion-where grief, fury, and tenderness, coalesce into a vulnerable exploration of self. These poems traverse the landscapes of memory and survival, gender and transformation, family and loss, each line a confrontation, a confession, a reckoning. With haunting lyricism and unflinching honesty, Hatchel invites you to step into the abyss, not to be consumed, but to bear witness-to sadness, yes, but also to the beauty that rises from it.

If there is nothing new under the sun, then Aurora's poems lie tucked beneath a shade tree. As Aurora examines how appearance can be a false advertisement for inward essence, she starts with her own experience-what it's like to know you are a woman before being seen as one-and proceeds to shake other things free from their faulty labels. This collection of poems is a fresh exploration not only of gender, motherhood, and the trans experience, but of humanity. It is essential reading for those tired of obvious narratives, sun-parched and withering. It offers company and clarity for readers digging into the rich dirt of their interior selves, looking for the tender and explosive seeds that Aurora believes are begging for our care.
