Halfborn Woman is a chronicle of a woman's journey towards her life and towards wholeness. the poems explore the strangeness and ordinariness of the poet's encounters with herself and the world. These poems are quirky, funny, moving and human. They reveal the darkness and anguish of intimacy without losing faith in the redemptive power of relationships, "being happy is not a thread, or a quilt or a road/ It's like bees buzzing on a hot afternoon/ separately, then disappearing".
