Description

This debut poetry collection from Christine Larusso explores the complexities of girlhood and women's coming-of-age in all its sorrows and ecstasies. Set against the backdrop of Southern California, the poems navigate the tensions between patriarchal domination, racial unbelonging, sex, death, and intergenerational alcoholism.

Written from a deeply personal perspective, the collection is marked by vivid flights of dream and dissociation, as well as a profound awareness of the harsh realities that shape women's lives. With its unique blend of sharp observation and tender emotion, There Will Be No More Daughters offers a powerful exploration of the human experience.

Published in 2019, this is a thought-provoking and deeply moving collection from a rising voice in poetry. With its unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, it is sure to resonate with readers who appreciate honest and uncompromising verse.
