from the bestselling author of my father's eyes, my mother's rage comes a haunting new collection by rose brik about the hunger we inherit. inherited hunger explores the ripple effects of generational trauma— how a mother’s rage, a father’s absence, and a childhood filled with trauma shape the way we live, love, and lose ourselves. these poems dive deep into the mother wound, daddy issues, toxic relationships, and the aching journey of trying to become someone whole. "I have an inherited hunger, passed down from generation to generation, waiting to be satiated. we've reached for men, alcohol, food, and drugs, but nothing could ever fill us up. a child will always be hungry until they are fed with love" - Inherited Hunger Review: Beautiful - Beautiful. Such an important and powerful demonstration of parental pain transformed into art. Review: Amazing - Truly deep and relatable this book helped me make sense of some of my feelings toward my mother and my life

Raw, Real, and Unforgettable
A powerful memoir that punches you right in the heart. Roxane Gay writes with clarity, vulnerability, and fierce honesty. Every chapter is haunting and beautiful. One of those reads you finish... and then think about for days. Required reading.

Inherited hunger by Rose Brik
A very deep book if you want to work on yourself, overcome your past and understand your life. Tough to digest at times but so helpful. I am thankful beyond words that I finally get to understand where my struggles come from. I also recommend her other book, My mother's rage, my father's eyes
