The Sun and Her Flowers by Rupi Kaur

4.0

the sun and her flowers is filled with empowering, seductive and heartfelt poetry. I love the free flowing emjambement style of these free verse poems and I didn't feel like the concepts were positioned in so abstract a way that I felt completely lost. I can hardly fault this book except for a few poems that felt less like artistry and more like a repetition of truisms and facts (almost like a newspaper article..ok that's a bit harsh). In any case Rupi kuar makes poignant expressions on such things as immigration, female voice and empowerment, self-love, mental health etc and she does so beautifully with language that is both sparse yet vibrant.
