Surviving Home is a poetry collection that gives insight into the traumatic childhood experiences one may face, making it seem almost like a memoir. Katerina Canyon, being an African American woman, navigates through her memories of child abuse and neglect, racial trauma and more with a ‘brutal’ honesty that might make this collection a heavy read, due to its vivid images.
