Description

Don't Tell Me Not to Ask Why, Samantha King Holmes's second solo poetry collection following her bestselling Born to Love, Cursed to Feel, is a mirror that reflects our honest truths. Holmes's poems are like little stories, hooking readers while navigating issues like body image, family relationships, loneliness, failed relationships, and finding belonging. Don't Tell Me Not to Ask Why is a call to introspection, a demand for honesty, and an affirmation of second chances.
