Born from a popular long-running series on her Instagram page, the latest poetic offering from pop star and bestselling author Jessie Reyez is a collection of in-the-moment poems written in response to fan-supplied prompts. Whether being asked to write about a dead leaf on the ground, gaslighting, being ghosted by a date, abandonment, addiction, or a sunset over still waters, Jessie responds with a heartfelt original poem that turns a seed of an idea into a garden of encouragement, vulnerability, honesty, and love. The People's Purge: Words of a Goat Princess Volume II—enhanced by the unique art of French Caribbean illustrator Eloïse Diot—is the vibrant bouquet picked from this lush community garden.
