The Witch doesn't go to the stake in this book
Descrição
Those who consider “witch” an insult could not be more mistaken: witches are women capable of setting the world around them on fire. Rescuing this ancestral image of the naturally powerful, independent and now indestructible female figure, Amanda Lovelace deepens the combination of forcefulness and lyricism that captivated readers and marked her debut work, The princess saves herself in this book, whose poems were mainly dedicated to topics such as abusive relationships, personal growth and self-esteem. Now, in The witch doesn't go to the fire in this book, she calls for women to unite against the most varied forms of violence and oppression. Alongside Rupi Kaur, from Other ways to use your mouth and What the sun does with flowers, Amanda is today one of the big names in the new poetry that emerged on social media and, with direct language and contemporary themes, took to the streets . Her The Witch Doesn't Go to the Fire in this book is more than a work written by a woman, about women and for women: it is a message from human being to human being – a brick in the construction of a more just and egalitarian.
