Turning to Wallpaper by Heidi Wong

 There are several aspects of this book that I can relate too as a female such as the poem "3 in 4" and "After the Breakup". These poems have to do with being a woman and the feeling of love. 

Other poems in the book, I could only read and try to understand the emotions that the author put into her work. Poems that dealt with the idea of a homeland and not feeling like you belong such as in the poem "Home Says Go Back To Where You Came From" and others like that. 

It would do a disservice to the book and to the author not to mention the artwork that is scattered throughout the book. Each piece is truly stunning and elevates the poetry around it. 

Truly a stunning work in both writing and art.


I received this book free from NetGalley and Central Avenue Publishing to review. 

Five out of five stars.
