The Day My Kisses Tasted Like Disorder
A collection of poems that explores a tumultuous year of love, heartbreak, unimaginable loss and female empowerment.
“The Day My Kisses Tasted Like Disorder” is a collection of poems that explores a tumultuous year of love, heartbreak, and all kinds of unimaginable loss. Emmanuella’s debut poetry book documents the birth and death of a college relationship, and the death of her sister. Each poem is an emotional time-stamp that plunges the reader into the depths of the author’s feelings as they burgeon and wane. The book reads like a diary and chronicles the boundaries of the things that we all feel: passion, heartache, and pain that gives way to hope. It concludes in a message of empowerment for all women, offering a redemptive quality to a masculine world where women are pushed to the sidelines.
