Rupi Kaur announces new book 'home body'.
Rupi Kaur has today announced her third book, 'home body', which is set to be released on November 17th and "walks readers through a reflective and intimate journey visiting the past, the present, and the potential of the self."
About her new book, Kaur says: "home body is a love letter to the self. i began writing this book at a time i felt completely lost in both my inner and outer world. home body is about what broke my heart. and what put it back together. i wrote while fighting a difficult battle with depression and anxiety. i wrote while getting help. i wrote while getting better. i wrote on days i couldn’t make it out of bed. on days i rejoiced in the company of friends. i wrote when i hurt. and when i cried. i wrote when i found laughter again. i wrote about the support of sisters. i wrote when the world burned from the fires of injustice. i wrote about the hope given to me by community. i wrote when i saw my parents getting tossed out by a world that valued them solely for the labor they produced. i wrote about honoring my mind and body so i could wake up and help build a world that serves all people. home body is how i learned to thunder. roar. and shine.
<3"
