Survive Like the Water
By Lydia Havens
-------------
About Survive Like the Water:
In her debut poetry collection, Lydia Havens explores how mental illness, grief, and abuse have correlated in her own life, and in the patterns she observes in the rest of the world. Divided into four thematic parts, Survive Like the Water describes trauma using everyday occurrences and objects, and asks necessary questions about healing as a lifelong process.

Testimonials:
These poems tell the story of a survivor; a sometimes reluctant, but mostly victorious, survivor. It isn't often that you find an author who is so unapologetic, so fiercely determined to overcome, but you find that with Lydia Havens. Their voice is a force to be reckoned with, and one that truly stands out among the rest. Reading this collection of poetry was being undone and then remade in one continuous loop. This book is a triumph, is walking out of the water, blessed and broken and clean.
-Caitlyn Siehl, Author of What we Buried and Crybaby

The item was shipped only after two weeks after I had written to the seller. Nevertheless, the article never reached me. Whether it was actually sent - probably not. I am very disappointed. After all, I got my money back. I'm guaranteed not to order anything here anymore. Can I NOT recommend.

This is a gorgeous tiny book which holds a lot of emotion and breathtaking words. I'm so glad I finally bought it, Darshana manages to strike chords on my heartstrings I didn't know existed.
