From Tiktok phenomenon Whitney Hanson, a revised edition of her bestselling Home, now with a new introduction and more than a dozen new poems
"the bees aren't going to go away but they are going to change with you sometimes they will be chaotic sometimes they will rest sometimes they will give you sweet honey and sometimes they will remind you of how much love can sting but if you can find a home within yourself and make peace with your bees you will be alright" --from Home
Resonant, raw, and vibrant, Home is a lyrical map to navigating heartbreak. Tracing the stages of healing - from the despair that comes with the end of a relationship to the eventual light and liberation that comes with time - the poems in Home provide comfort and solace, while revitalizing your soul - and helping you make peace with your bees.
If you haven’t read @whitneyhansonpoetry then you absolutely need to. I read Harmony last year after a loved one passed away. It felt fitting to read Home a year later.
Whitney has a beautiful way of putting into words what I cannot. This collection of poems is about going through heartbreak - whether that be a romantic relationship ending or a friendship breakup - Whitney paints a beautiful picture of grief and sorrow and how they can both coexist.
I hope you find comfort in these words. I know it did for me. 💛
