Paper Boat: New and Selected Poems, 1961-2023 by Margaret Atwood, Margaret Atwood

challenging emotional hopeful inspiring reflective slow-paced

4.5

"Just wait till forty, I think.
Forty is when you say, Hey,
wait,
I am not who I am!

After that, there's a few
more surprises,
If you get that far-
that far into the woods
you keep hoping you're out
of."

A 700+ page poetry collection is not for the faint of heart. But totally worth it.
