Bøker av Elizabeth Shane

A Poet's View of Life, Laughter and a Little Dash of Mischief is Elizabeth Shane's third poetry book and first collection of comedy poems, reflecting and celebrating new found wisdom. Using a humorous pair of spectacles to navigate some of life's trials and tribulations, Elizabeth finds herself immersed in a world of ham sandwiches, hospital gowns and discovering joy in the strangest of situations. Her poems share an insight into Elizabeth's thoughts and experiences as she grapples the complexities of family, health and her love of sheep.

Elizabeth is a survivor of childhood sexual abuse. The traumatic effects of this left many emotional scars as well as complex PTSD, in a life often hidden by silence. Throughout different stages of her recovery, Silhouette of a Songbird witnesses Elizabeth's personal struggle on her journey to unlock the pain of reclaiming her voice through the power of poetry. By sharing her own experience, she hopes this will provide support and strength to others who have suffered similar childhood trauma, with the knowledge that they are understood and not walking through the storm alone.
