商品簡介
The Woman Behind the Curtain is a raw and tender poetry collection about motherhood, identity, and the quiet strength it takes to rebuild yourself from the inside out. Through three sections-The Slip, The Waves, and The Shore-Christiana Marie traces the emotional journey of becoming a mother, losing yourself, finding yourself again, and learning to stand firmly in your own truth.
These poems explore the moments we rarely speak aloud: the loneliness of early motherhood, the ache of doing it alone, the grief of who we used to be, and the pride that rises when we finally see ourselves clearly. As she writes, "Growth means discomfort," a reminder that transformation often begins in the quietest places. From sleepless nights and spilled milk to the unexpected joy of watching a child grow into themselves, this collection honors the women who carry worlds on their backs while learning to love the person they've become.
It is a book for mothers, daughters, cycle-breakers, and anyone who has ever rebuilt themselves in the dark. Fans of Kate Baer, Maggie Smith, Rupi Kaur, and Amanda Lovelace will find comfort and recognition in these pages. The Woman Behind the Curtain is a celebration of resilience, healing, and the woman who emerges when no one is watching.
