(Un)Wholesome

By Chelsea Bartell

Chelsea Bartell's debut poetry collection, (Un)Wholesome, is her purest and most heart wrenching testament to her belief that immense growth happens after our afflictions. Bartell vividly captures her growing pains in order to guide her readers through theirs. She speaks fiercely on the importance of a woman's independence while, graphically, teaching her readers to demand the respect they deserve. To accept love that replenishes and nurtures and to discard those who aren't willing to reach those lengths. She speaks from a swollen heart as she recovers from a love she thought would be the last. Only coming to find, in the depths of their relationship, there were more lies than truths, more manipulation than there was love. She came into awareness of the toxicity they were creating in one another. She hashes out her anger with her absent father by using letters she wrote but, could never send. Bartell wrote this book with intention to heal the wounds of the human condition. After reading from cover to cover, she hopes you too, will come into your fullest truth, despite the anxiety, lack of, anger, frustration and confusion people believe hinders our growth.
