Cliffs and Cathedrals: Poems from the Precipice of Healing

By Helen Billett

Book Overview

"She found herself lost,

her favourite place to be.

Lost in words. Lost in colour.

In texture and in telling."

In her debut poetry collection Cliffs and Cathedrals: Poems from the Precipice of Healing, Canadian artist and writer Helen Billett weaves words into a medium for healing. Through vivid imagery and the language of visual art-colour, texture, and abstraction-these poems explore trauma, resilience, and the transformative power of art in reclaiming one's story.

A deeply personal journey through grief, renewal, and creativity, this collection is an invitation to lose yourself in art and words-and in the quiet, powerful act of becoming whole.

If you've ever felt like a work in progress, you'll find a friend in these pages.

A perfect read for fans of poetry about healing, grief, and the power of creativity.
