Overview

It's time to snatch your power back, woman! Bitch: A Reclamation is salty and irreverent women's poetry. These pages bring to life a brutally honest look at the lived experience of an American millennial woman. Poet Ingrid H. Turner is fearless in her exploration of the nitty gritty emotional realities of womanhood, motherhood, love, and grief. ""When somebody calls you a bitch, say thank you."" - Gloria Steinem With a nod to Gloria's brand of feminism, Ingrid is encouraging women to re-brand their power and reclaim words that historically have been used to denigrate and subdue women - such as Bitch. With the overturning of Roe V. Wade and the subsequent marginalization of women in America, now is an important time for women to share their experiences with truth and courage. Now is a pivotal time for women to reclaim their power - to take it back from even the words that are used to insult and contain. The fight ahead may be long, but through the raging authenticity women share with each other and the world, it will be won. Foreword by Monika Carless, Author of The Dark Poole Trilogy

"Beautiful jewelry of words, Maestria of wordsmithing & Pure expressionBitch: A reclamation poetry book by Ingrid H. Turner is a tour de force, a breath of fresh air in a world of busybodies busy being busy, witty, sensible, clumsy, vigorous, confident, Ingrid in this beautiful masterpiece shows us what the initial mission of poetry was: to revive. to shock out of numbness, to amaze, to preach, to create, and recreate, to entertain and inspire, to guide, to point out, underline certain aspects of the Vision, to embolden. Bold, if anything, this work is a beautiful masterpiece of word jewelry not denying the non neatness and sometimes uncertain and uncanny waves of the human experience yet affirming the GREAT YES to LIFE and its magic and mystery - Mario L. Amehou Prepare to Feel Empowered! Damn this book is fire!!! In reading Ingrid's poetry I felt a connection to her words that re-aligned me with so many parts of myself I had forgotten about. This book is artistic vulnerability and will leave you inspired! - Valley Villager Modern feminist poetry that ignores boundaries! This is a volume of thoroughly modern poetry that packs a punch worthy of its time! The author pulls no punches... These poems are deceptively simple and informal... Until you realize hours or days later that the picture conjured up by the vivid language is still with you. May I suggest starting with ""It's better from a distance""? -Vite"
