This collection of poems illustrates the speaker’s journey through a particular hurt that unearths all other heartbreaks, prompting an unraveling of the self. That unraveling, rather than undoing, is a catalyst for untangling the messy, at times heartrending, and always miraculous experience of love in all of its forms.\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cbr data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTender and profoundly human, this collection dives through losses and emerges not unscathed, but whole nonetheless. In the search for what is left, the speaker finds our inherent interconnectedness and a well of resilience, hope, and love that cannot be dismantled. \u003cem\u003eIn Lieu of Heartbreak, This is Like\u003c\/em\u003e is a love letter to feeling, to aliveness, to loneliness, and to the self, ever reaching for radiance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp align=\"justify\" data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eLeticia Priebe Rocha is a poet, visual artist, and editor.
