About the author

A breakout literary phenomenon and #1 New York Times Bestselling Author, Rupi Kaur wrote, illustrated, and self-published her first poetry collection, 'milk and honey' in 2014. Next came its artistic siblings 'the sun and her flowers' and ‘home body’, both debuting at #1 on bestseller lists across the world. These collections have sold more than 11 million copies and have been translated into over 43 languages. Most recently in 2022- she released her 4th book ‘Healing Through Words’ which is a journey of guided writing exercises to help the reader explore their creativity.

As she has done from the very beginning, Rupi self-produced ‘Rupi Kaur Live’, the first poetry special of its kind, which debuted on Amazon Prime Video in 2021.

Rupi Kaur graces stages across the globe on sold-out world tours. These shows are a poetic theatrical experience interlaced with her own touch of stand-up. Her work touches on love, loss, trauma, healing, femininity, and migration. She feels most at home when creating art, performing her poetry onstage, and spending time with family and friends.

Very touching and beautiful

[Xim · Rating 3 out of 5]

Es un poemario que aborda temas de abuso, amor propio, familia, relaciones, tristeza, dolor, de todo un poco. Este es el segundo libro que leo de Rupi, y aunque me gustó más Milk and Honey este no deja de ser un libro que te deja cosas para analizar. En general la prosa de la autora me gusta mucho y hay muchos que se volvieron mis favs.

I liked the first two better

I liked the first two books better. Some of the poems were good, for my taste, but I did not enjoy it that much.
