In this provocative memoir, hopepunk author, Disa Dawn, shares her healing journey through raw poetry and prose vignettes.Diagnosed with an aggressive breast cancer, Disa escapes into fantastical worlds where monkeys talk, antique Colts never run out of bullets, and the great mother crone casts spells, weaving healing songs into the night's cool breath. It's a good world, a world she never wants to leave.Part fairy tale, part horror story, the supernatural is ever-present on Disa's voyage through uncharted waters; a journey this island girl seemed destined to take as a carrier of the BRCA1 gene mutation. In a voice uniquely her own, Disa bravely shares her deeply personal experiences battling cancer, slaying the demons this dreadful disease unearths, and serendipitous encounters with angelic warriors sent to help.
