The Sun and Her Flowers: Rupi Kaur

Product Information

From Rupi Kaur, the bestselling author of M ilk and Honey, comes her long-awaited second collection of poetry. Illustrated by Kaur, The Sun and Her Flowers is a journey of wilting, falling, rooting, rising and blooming. It is a celebration of love in all its forms. So happy to read this one holding a physical copy in my favourite bookstore with two cups of cuppacino ✨ Lastly, another thing I wasn’t a huge fan of is none of her poems use punctuation. She had some longer poems unlike anything she had in m&h, but most of those just employed really long-winded run-on sentences and I wasn’t a huge fan of that style. Because of that, it was hard to tell sometimes when one poem ended and another begun because none were punctuated, some didn’t have titles, some were just one sentence, etc. Maybe Cinderella’s stepmother had good reason to be such a bitter b*tch, maybe Sleeping Beauty wasn’t waiting for a prince to come save her.

Charly Cox is a very young author, only twenty-two when this was published, but she was named as one of ELLE magazine’s 20 power players to watch out for in 2018 so watch this space.my heart aches for sisters more than anything/it aches for women helping women/like flowers ache for spring” It’s one of those topics where whatever you say will be criticised and Shraya’s observations will no doubt resonate with white readers. I think we owe Rupi Kaur a lot for making poetry accessible to mainstream readers, young readers in particular, with her debut collection, milk & honey. Let me start off by saying that I am not a fan of Rupi Kaur's milk and honey; HOWEVER, being the forgiving person that I am, I have decided to give her work a second chance.

The main theme of this collection is female empowerment and it’s an important read for those who have ever wanted to rewrite their own story or be something different from what everyone expects. This is akin to reading a teenager’s journal. Not that it’s bad, but rather a bit cliche and young. Also, the amount of time it took me to correct the computer and remove punctuation and add breaks in sentences was frustrating... and I’m pretty sure it still didn’t put my quotes as they appear in the book! (That is an explanation point for emphasis.) El poema más triste fue el de feminicidio de bebes, fue completamente shokeante porque nos gusta pensar que esto no pasa cerca de nosotros, que este tipo de cosas tan horribles pasan en pueblos lejanos, pero cuando dice que esto pasa aquí en la ciudad donde vivo, a mujeres con las que me cruzo en la calle, no pude evitar derramar varias lágrimas.The range of emotions are all felt ... sadness, anger, loss, grief, pride, guilt, fear, nervousness, shame, joy, surprise, love .... The fact that Rupi Kaur has taken up the reins from Angelou in a modern age and is still shouting about these issues today tells a sad story about the “progress” that has been made over the past few decades.
