Michelle Ruiz is a 32-year-old American redefining contemporary love in this, her first collection of poems. She's a lover of words, a middle school teacher, a world traveler, and an inspiration to all. She beautifully intertwines self-love, femininity, romance, and a greater love that surpasses time and borders. Her passion for activism and social-emotional awareness is reflected through nature imagery and exquisite sensory details that are both powerful and digestible to the reader. She wants to reach across generations and create a meaningful impact that will encourage everyone to fall in love with poetry.
