Jellyfish and Grit - Hardcover

by Maya Klauber (Author)

Jellyfish and Grit offers poems spanning a life lived with chronic illness. From navigating a childhood in pain, to finding the right life partner, to examining motherhood in ways many people are never forced to, these poems offer unique insights into living in a body that is differently abled. They also explore faith, mental health, and a connection to nature. There is a quietly heroic spirit-a grit-that endures throughout this collection. If we let it, this collection of poems may challenge our assumptions about what it means to take paths we never anticipated, and perhaps help us redefine suffering.
