Beauty is Blood and Gore (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798655731301)

It is exhausting to constantly be at war with your own body. And it is not a war that you can win. You've probably heard the phrase "beauty is pain", but now I introduce you to "Beauty is Blood and Gore". This sophomore collection of poetry by Rachael Hamlet will resonate with anyone who has ever struggled to accept their physical appearance. Anyone who has ever tried to shape themselves into someone that they thought other people wanted to see. Anyone who's ever been in an abusive relationship with their body and tried to change it with whatever means necessary. These poems chronicle the journey of a young woman who realizes that the rejection of beauty standards, diet culture, and her own inner critic are necessary in order to attain the acceptance she actually craves―the acceptance of herself.
