Bridled - by Amy Meng (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

In this debut collection, Amy Meng meticulously strips a collapsing relationship for its parts. By dissecting the performativity and vulnerability of a person in love, with a singular precision, Meng's poems are marked by an unflinching drive to confront the most troubling parts of love. Yet rather than being propelled by the broken heart, Bridled is triumphantly lit from the inside by the unexpected, miraculous growth of self.
