About the Book

Dandelion: A Memoir in Essays is a profoundly personal exploration of mental health, identity, and survival. Through a collection of essays, poetry, and reflections, the author shares their journey as a Black, queer woman grappling with chronic illness, grief, and societal pressures. Themes of self-love, resilience, and navigating life's challenges are central to the narrative, as the author confronts the complexities of race, gender, and mental health. The work invites readers into a raw and emotional journey, offering a universal message about survival and the power of finding strength in the face of adversity.
