Title: Embody Your Woman Glory
Review: Rupi Kaur’s third collection of poetry “home body” (perfectly titled) is an exploration of self-love, a struggle with mental illness, and a renewal of a woman-spirit bruised by abuse.This collection is an intimate conversation with Kaur and herself, that we were privileged enough to be invited to observe. I especially enjoyed this collection because we see the process in Kaur’s evolution, maturity, and growth as we fly through the pages. She begins in a depressed state, and ends up in a healthy place, basking in her own beautiful individuality. The most import part of growth is the sticky middle – the seesaw between sadness and the desire to feel better. Kaur explores this in the middle of this book where she’s struggling to pull herself out and separate herself from her pain. In this section, she goes up and down – one poem feeling depressed and empty, and then she empowers yourself on the very next page.“i’m in the darkest room in my life”And just a few pages later,“i am loving myself out of the dark”Kaur talks about depression and abuse in a real and brutal way. She talks about her own experience of sexual abuse at a very young age. These poems are painful and difficult to read. Her confusion mixed with introspection, so many years after some of these incidents, is interesting because it shows the long-term effects of trauma. You can tell that she’s processed these feelings, and at this point she’s just sick and tired of the stigma and the pain that followers her.Kaur talks about feminism in an authentic, relatable way. She expresses her exhaustion and frustration with this concept as well. Her approach is similar to that of her struggle with abuse, and therefore interconnected. She’s a woman tried and beaten down by misogyny, racism, and her experiences.Yet, with everything that’s riding against her, Kaur managers to pick up her remains, and move on with a beautiful and enchanted life. She doesn’t let her abusers take away her childhood or she child-like spender for life.Kaur presents self-acceptance, self-appreciation and self-love in a new and refreshing way. We’ve all heard these themes before, but they mean more here since we seen the process from the beginning of this collection to the end. We see how down and destroyed she felt in the opening pages, so appreciate and understand her journey.The concepts of having patience, being still, and destroying expectations and over productivity lead Kaur to the peace she’s fought hard to achieve. She focuses on the balance between fighting to gain control over your life and letting go of reins and rediscover herself in all her glory.“there is a conversationhappening inside youpay deep attentionto what your inner worldis saying”Enjoy some of my favorite quotes from “home body”,“why do i let my mindget under my skini am so sensitive”“i’m too in love with my lifeto be spilled all over the floorfor the next manwho gives me butterflies”“masturbationis meditation”“i want someone who isinspired by my brilliancenot threatened by it”“[I] accepted that happinesshas nothing to do withfeeling good all the time”“i want to leave this place knowingi did something with my bodyother than trying tomake it look perfect”“be herein what needs to be done today–that’s how you honor tomorrow”“nothing tastes better thanbeing on your owner side”

Review: Ce livre est juste formidable! Rupi kaur etant mon auteur préférée, j’ai jamais été déçue. Pour les français ayant peur de l’anglais, je vous rassure c’est tout à fait compréhensible facilement. C’est pas un anglais trop poussé donc ça devrait le faire pour les personnes ayant un petit niveau b1 je pense 🙂

Review: Era para un regalo y mi amiga quedó encantada. Rupi no decepciona y te llega, te remueve y hasta diría que te sana.4 estrellas porque la tapa vino un poco dobladilla, pero eso es cosa del empaquetado.
