Good Girls Don't Come Home

By Kindal Brown

In their debut poetry collection, Kindal Brown tells the story of leaving home for heartbreak through the eyes of a queer girl from the deep South.

Discover how she rebuilds herself-and her faith-from her own ruins, and finds closure within herself. Each poem is deliberately woven into a larger narrative that follows lonely days and hot Summer nights from the eyes of an adult who's still just a kid, expressing many months in just over 100 pages. Like the Sun, witness her rise, fall, and come back brighter than before.*

"There's no day too dark
for the Sun to come again
and there's no denying the cruelty
that's inherently human
and there's no wound that can kill me
forever, it seems
and there's no one who can tell me
what my life truly means."
