Of Roses and Thorns

In "Of Roses and Thorns," Josephine Grey delivers a raw and striking debut collection of light gothic poetry. Each poem explores the struggles of deconstructing a cultic religious past, confronting mental illness, and embracing bisexual identity, while capturing the intensity and beauty of love, heartache, and healing. Mythological imagery threads through moments of hope, romance, and self-acceptance as Grey reflects on the thorns hidden beneath life's roses. Unflinchingly honest and deeply hear
