The Princess Saves Herself in This One
Women Are Some Kind of Magic · Book 1Description
This powerful collection of narrative poetry reimagines the fairy-tale princess as a young woman confronting abuse, grief, heartbreak, self-harm, and the lasting wounds of difficult relationships. Moving through the stages of princess, damsel, and queen, the poems trace a raw journey from isolation and pain toward self-knowledge, resilience, and personal power. With spare, emotionally direct language and recurring images of towers, dragons, monsters, and escape, the collection explores feminism, healing, love, loss, and the hard-won freedom of learning to save oneself.
