Synopsis

“Like her music, Marina's written work is laced with brilliant and bold wordplay throughout.” —Cosmopolitan

For the first time, platinum-certified singer-songwriter Marina shares her singular observations of the human heart through poetry; this collection is essential

Marina’s talent for powerful, evocative song lyrics finds a new outlet in her poetry. Each poem resonates with the same creative melodies and emotional depth that have made her an artistic sensation. Hailed by The New York Times for “redefining songs about coming of age, and the aftermath, with bluntness and crafty intelligence,” Marina delves even further into trauma, youth, and the highs and lows of relationships in these profound, autobiographical poems to form a collection that transcends the boundaries of music and literature.

I received this book through Goodreads' giveaway. It came in today and I read it... today. Duh. Anyways. It's not a polished collection quite yet so keep that in mind. Overall, it seems like a solid collection of poetry. It plays more with space and form than it does with language and imagery. I don'......more

I went into this poetry collection believing this could turn out one of two ways: be inspiring and interesting like her music or be unbearable. Unfortunately, it turned out to be the latter.
