Description
Book SynopsisThe perfect gift for fans of Florence + the Machine, with additional lyrics, poems and a new chapter of sermons

Pop's high priestess bares her soul in this
candid collection of poems and lyrics . . . offering a chance to appreciate on the bare stage of the blank page
the fineness of her words. And
like fellow poet-musician Nick Cave, Welch has found a way for the song and the voice of the rabbit-hearted girl to coexist * Observer *
A
varied, visually arresting tome, it brings together poems, lyrics, sketches and notes from Welch's personal and professional life, making the reader feel as though they're
peeking into a private journal * Refinery 29 *
An alchemy of memoir and imagination * Waterstones Newsletter *
