Overview
Using experimental, free-verse poetry that dares to reject traditional poetic forms, The Desert is a Woman Too is an exploration of healing, drawing upon themes of trauma, self-acceptance, and adventure. This collection of poetry challenges the meaning of 'desert' and rewrites the ways in which the human condition fears discomfort. The Desert is a Woman Too encompasses the urgency of the sun and the patience of the moon, the agony of the mountains and finally and relentlessly: the healing power of the desert.

Reviews
"""Kristen Richards' The Desert Is A Woman Too takes the reader on a lyrical journey through the soul of a woman inextricably bound to the natural world. Vivid imagery paints landscapes of rippled desert sands, sun-dappled forest pines, and star-strewn skies, all mirroring the depths of her own spirit. Each poem whispers a resonating message, weaving a tapestry of resilience, growth, and the profound connection between a woman and the wild earth that sustains her. The Desert Is A Woman Too is an intimate conversation with nature, a celebration of its beauty, and a call to listen to the wilderness that guides us all."" - Azure Hall, Author of Reflections: A Mythology in Poetry & Prose ""Richards' poetry captivates you. Her written words roll off of the tongue perfectly. I feel like I was a part of the world Richards wanted me to experience."" - Amelie Honeysuckle, Author of To Kiss The Lips Of The Maple Tree and What Once Was An Inside Out Rainbow ""The Desert Is A Woman Too is one of the best poetry collections of 2024! It is brilliant, lyrical, and presents a rich perspective on life, self-love, and the healing energy of nature. Kristen does it once again, blending beautiful prose with what it means to experience the inevitable beauty and hardship of the human condition."" - Flor Ana, Author of The Truth About Love and A Moth Fell In Love With The Moon ""Richards' The Desert Is A Woman Too will make you feel as if you are on a long road trip where nostalgia comes as a gentle reminder to take a glance at where we are, at how far we have come, and to continue despite how long the roads may be."" - Fin Rose Aborizk, Author of On the Ever-Lovely Morrow and At The Beginning Of Yesterday"
