This book is a rare treasure! The poems radiate powerful light that comes from the author's great heart, authentic wisdom, and beautiful way with words. . . . These poems will surely light your life.” - T.A. Barron, author of 'The Merlin Saga'RICHMOND, VIRGINIA, UNITED STATES, January 3, 2023 /einpresswire.com / -- belle isle books of Richmond, Virginia, is pleased to announce the upcoming release of a new poetry collection, 'waiting for scotland ' by S.A. Borders-Shoemaker.
It takes guts to be who you are-but as the narrator and author of this collection of poetry asserts, there can be no love without liberty. As a young woman, S.A. Borders-Shoemaker, like so many other women, found herself stifled. Her longing to move on from a history of abuse and fear and become a fully actualized adult inspires her to pack and plan for a trip to Scotland-to her, not just a country, but the representation of a vague and mythical future. As she waits, she muses on the painful truths she must learn-and speak-before she can discover who she really is, and open herself to fulfillment at all levels of human nature.
The intimate, lyrical chronicle of a woman who must confront her past to free herself from it, 'Waiting for Scotland' is scheduled for release on January 4, 2023.
''Waiting for Scotland' is a poetry collection about reconciling the past with hopes for the future. Within these pages is the direct confrontation between youthful expectations and sobering realities. Born from the labors of deep soul work, it is all at once a comprehensive story and a series of meditations on identity. This collection acknowledges what has come before and how the past contends with a very real and powerful present. Borders-Shoemaker's words declare a hope for a different future, rooted in honesty and compassion.'
