The Slow Climb

By Emily Gayle Waldman

In her debut collection, poet Emily Gayle Waldman weaves an intricate portrait of recovery in poems written throughout her adolescence, writing a story of survival in real time. With vivid and moving imagery, Emily pens a tale about the ways we fall apart, the ways we heal, and the people who hold our hands through the hard parts. Exploring themes of mental and chronic illness, divorce, love, and the pain of feeling lost from oneself, The Slow Climb is a raw and stunning collection that will speak to anyone who has ever felt the world crashing down inside of them, and still, despite it all, continued to reach for new heights.
