4.0 out of 5 stars A fascinating deep-dive into psychological states and conditions Reflections from the Shadows surprised me, in a good way. This work, while thematically dark, explores many notions that are vital to victim-survivors of abuse to understand for their healing. There were things I knew, in the book - passages about the symptoms of anxiety and depression, for example - but there were many things that I was aware of but did not have the terminology for. Learning about concepts such as 'flying monkeys' and 'grey rocking' was both fascinating and useful. The strong point of this work, for me, is the explorations of these concepts. The poetry is quite emotional, and, while it utilises imagery and figurative language well, it is best to proceed with care if you are in a vulnerable state as you may find this work triggering or difficult. Overall, it is a fascinating exploration of psychological notions and well worth a read.
