Cosmic Valentine, Gabrielle Faith Williams

UNLV Theses, Dissertations, Professional Papers, and Capstones

Narrativization can empower us to reach beyond our loss and act as a trauma healer. This collection uses myth and spirituality to interrogate that suffering. Concerned with both physical and mystic bodies, the characters in these poems are reborn into new paradigms, attempting to diffuse loss (of dignity, hope, identity), and transform that injury into empowerment.
