Beschreibung
From the acclaimed poet behind bone, an exploration of how we can meet our truest selves, the ones we've always been meant to become

Yrsa Daley-Ward's words have resonated with hundreds of thousands of readers-through her books of poetry and memoir, bone and The Terrible; through her writing for Beyoncé on Black Is King; and through her always illuminating Instagram posts.

Now, in The How, Yrsa encourages readers to begin, as she puts it, the great work of meeting ourselves. This isn't the self we've built up in response to our surroundings, or the self we manufacture to please the people around us, but instead, our most intimate self, the one we visit in dreams, the one that calls to us from a glimmering future.

With a mix of short lyrical musings and her signature stunning poetry, Yrsa gently takes readers by the hand, encouraging them to join her as she explores how we can remove our filters, and see and feel more of who we really are behind the preconceived notions of propriety and manners we've accumulated with age. With a beautiful design and intriguing meditations, The How can be used to start conversations, to prompt writing, to delve deeper-whether you're solo, or with friends, on your feet or writing from the solace of home.

Zusammenfassung
POETRY MEETS WELLNESS. As seen on her Instagram and in readings, Yrsa's fans crave her advice and guidance when it comes to matters of the heart, self, and life. With The How, she brings her magical way of looking at the world to readers, encouraging them to get to the heart of what really matters through poetry and prose.

GROWING PROFILE. Since we published The Terrible, Yrsa's presence has only grown, from an increased Instagram following, collaborations with high-end brands including Maison Valentino, acting roles with the BBC, and her work as a lead writer on Beyonce's Black Is King.

REACHES OUT TO READERS. In the vein of poetry from Rupi Kaur, Amanda Lovelace, Lang Leav, The How actively reaches out to readers, inviting them to consider the thoughts and ideas Yrsa's sharing, versus passively taking it in. This is a book that gently demands the reader to consider how their own lives intersect with the themes of the book.

A NECESSARY VOICE WITH BROAD APPEAL. By drawing on her particular life experiences, Yrsa's work has broad intersectional appeal, incorporating race, feminism, and LGBTQ+ issues.
