Unbroken: A Public Poetry Anthology (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781959743033)

UNBROKEN is a powerful poetry anthology that explores trauma, healing, and the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit. Featuring diverse voices from around the world, this collection proves that surviving isn't about never falling-it's about the choice made in the space between breaking and rising.

Seven sections guide readers through the journey from fracture to wholeness:

From the raw pain of loss and mental illness to the quiet triumphs of everyday survival, these poems refuse to look away. You'll find fathers who left too soon, mothers fighting addiction, refugees yearning for home, and disabled communities celebrating their bonds. These are stories of people who have faced their own breaking points and chose to continue.

This anthology features:

• Honest explorations of depression, grief, and PTSD that validate your own struggles
• Powerful poems about war, displacement, and social justice including voices from Gaza, Iran, and Appalachia
• Multilingual works celebrating Filipino, Spanish, and Urdu heritage
• Poems about chronic illness and disability that reject the pressure to be "fixed"
• Unexpected celebrations of joy-good sex, strong coffee, dancing, and friendship-found despite everything
• Voices spanning generations, cultures, and identities united by their refusal to be called broken
