Trauma Carnival (Paperback)
"Some write for the love of language, its music and images, its journey of discovery. Others write because there is that which must be stated, which must be extracted from the body and documented outside the author as a proof and a lesson. SaraEve Fermin's third collection, Trauma Carnival, does both. Its relentless honesty is an ode to love and self-possession in a world that wishes to refuse both. For those who long for the answer to SaraEve's question, "What is magic but to live without shame?" this is a must-have collection you will return to, over and over, for the deep relief of compassionate witness, for the grace of space made around the heart, for the addition of years to your life."-Cecily Schuler.
