Book excerpt: A vivid, powerful anthology of poems by and for young women, giving voice to a new generation of international poets, with themes of feminism, empowerment, resilience, confidence, and integrity. SMEAR: Poems For Girls presents a curated, all-female lineup of poets from different countries and addresses issues of trauma, survivorship, independence, and body positivity. As described on Dazed.com: "The poetry collection celebrating the imperfect, frank woman, SMEAR is chronicling the voices of women, unapologetically confronting self-image, body autonomy and our relationships with each other." The first North American edition of SMEAR will include an expanded selection of poems from international woman poets.
