With Love, Grief and Fury is poetry full of love and hope for people and planet. Grief poems brimming with compassion, mourning what was lost whilst contemplating what might be found. And poems of fire and fury that kick some ass, tell the truth and inspire change. This is Salena Godden's most audacious and definitive collection to date - like a big sister's arm around your shoulder, it is important and nourishing for the soul.
