she asked me what it felt like –
to feel at home in my body.
‘like breathing underwater
like having sunlight for bones
like an ocean for a heart
and chamomile tea for blood.’
With these words and more, Emory Hall’s debut poetry collection follows the anatomy of a river, swelling with loss and grief, and dances with the sacred waters of transformation and motherhood.
Full of magic and deep emotion, Made of Rivers will wash anew those who come to it, uncovering hidden corners of the self. It draws upon Emory’s wellspring of experiences, hardships, triumphs and revelations.
Emory’s work sheds light on vital themes of the feminine, healing and self-care, offers solace to those navigating profound loss and strikes a chord with mothers, both seasoned and new, who find their own journey mirrored in the pages of her poetry.
‘I am blown away by the magic of Made of Rivers and Emory Hall. Emory’s words have a way of piercing right through the heart [...] This collection will live on my nightstand for a long time.’ – Jordan Younger, author, podcast host and creator of The Balanced Blond
The audiobook of Made of Rivers features original music by Trevor Hall.
