Eating Satsumas in the Sun and Forgetting About Heartbreak
Emily started writing poetry for the incredibly healthy reason of trying to impress a boy. Now he’s long gone and she’s reclaiming her words. This writer, storyteller, mum, and general liability dives into her debut hour of honest, argumentative, optimistic, brutal, loving and (dare we say it) funny poetry to untangle the threads of love, identity, parenthood, friendship, loss, belonging and the pure unadulterated joy of eating satsumas in the sun and forgetting about heartbreak.
