Venus in Pisces is a collection of poems and letters arranged chronologically to depict the young poet's journey through 7 years of heartbreak. Told through love notes and vulnerable confessions, the diary-style book follows our poet through a series of romantic relationships, her discovery of self, and the evolution of her sexuality, as her lovers begin to take on new and softer form. This is a coming of age story, as well as a coming out story that explores the author's first experiences with lesbian love. Deeply embedded themes of obsession, unrequited lust, and limerence hit heavy from beginning to end, as the poet seeks to be perceived with the same scrutinizing care she offers each subject of this book.
