This book uncovers so many layers of the human experience: love, loss, grief, betrayal, hope, trust, and joy. Each page is a work of art. The words and illustrations felt so beautifully woven with my own experiences and reflections, mirrored in Juma’s voice. It’s a collection I feel I can re-read over time when I’m in different phases of my journey through transformation and change. Juma’s poetry is so inspiring to me, and the way that the phases of transformation unfold remind me of the blessings of our shared humanity. This is a book for your own exploration, and would make a special gift to those you love.

Ana Juma has found a way to put words to so many of my feelings and journal entries in a way that makes even the tough emotions and experiences beautiful. The stories of friendship and ancestors remind me to celebrate all the possibilities waiting for me in this very moment. The language is exquisite. I absolutely love the art, it is so unique and brings the stories to life perfectly!

A visceral plunge into the depths of her soul. I highly recommend! It’s a journey of growth, with all the mess and complications that come with it.

One of the best books I’ve read! It lifted me up when I was buried underground, reassuring me it is all part of the process and it made me sprout!! The illustrations are amazing too! Totally recommend it!!!

Page by page I fell in love with the poetry, the words, the illustrations and the passion of love. It's a beautiful book, accompanying a heart break, new finding love but especially ones who seeks themselves after they got disconnected.
