These poems are written from the body as much as the page, carrying the pulse of a woman who has loved fiercely, lost deeply, and chosen herself anyway.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eZanda J. Boggs writes with unflinching honesty about being \"too much\" in a world that demands silence: about abandonment and attachment, kink and consent, motorcycles and motherhood, faith and fury, neurodivergence and nervous systems that learned survival before safety. The voice is raw but deliberate, tender but sharp-equal parts prayer, confession, and battle cry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis collection does not romanticize pain or package healing into neat metaphors. Instead, it tells the truth about what it costs to stay-through trauma, through relationships that could not hold her, through systems that demanded more than they gave. Each poem is a refusal to disappear, a reclamation of voice, body, and power.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThrottle \u0026amp; Tenderness\u003c\/i\u003e is for readers who: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003elove poetry that speaks plainly and fiercely\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ehave survived complicated love, trauma, or loss\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eunderstand that healing is nonlinear and often loud\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003ebelieve tenderness and strength can exist in the same breath\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book is not asking to be consumed quietly.\u003cbr\u003eIt asks to be felt.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause sometimes the bravest thing a woman can do\u003cbr\u003eis stay-and tell the truth about it.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Independently Published","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47594725376151,"sku":"9798244497465","price":1272.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798244497465.webp?v=1774986931","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/throttle-tenderness-poems-from-a-woman-who-refused-to-disappear-9798244497465","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
