<b>From the celebrated poet Yrsa Daley-Ward, a poignant collection of autobiographical poems about the heart, life, and the inner self. </b> <br /> Bone. Visceral. Close to. Stark. <br /> The poems in Yrsa Daley-Ward's collection <i>bone</i> are exactly that: reflections on a particular life honed to their essence--so clear and pared-down, they become universal. <br /> From navigating the oft competing worlds of religion and desire, to balancing society's expectations with the raw experience of being a woman in the world; from detailing the experiences of growing up as a first generation black British woman, to working through situations of dependence and abuse; from finding solace in the echoing caverns of depression and loss, to exploring the vulnerability and redemption in falling in love, each of the raw and immediate poems in Daley-Ward's <i>bone</i> resonate to the core of what it means to be human. <br /><i>
