Forty years. Forty women. Forty raw, reverent poems charting the map of a woman's soul. On the occasion of her fortieth year, one woman reflects on her past before moving to the future. In this debut poetry collection from Nina Lior, The Forty Poems delivers an extraordinary, deeply intimate set of contemporary poetry and prose dedicated to the forty women - lovers, mentors, celebrities, legends, family, friends - who shaped her into the woman she is today.
Inside this evocative book, you will explore:
- Candid coming-of-age poems detailing the beauty and heartbreak of early queer discovery
- Reverent tributes to the women who left indelible marks through love, loss, healing, and mentorship
- A powerful midlife celebration of reclaiming your narrative and stepping fully into your forties and beyond
Unhesitatingly honest and efficiently written, this is an essential read for anyone who has been built, broken, and remade by the women in their lives.
