Fractured, Yet Healing is a collection of poems, visual art, and photography detailing a soulful, healing journey. In a nonlinear fashion, the narrative bleeds and stumbles until divine light casts away shadowed confusion. It is a human account that journeys you from a frozen, seemingly perpetual hell to a vivacious, white garden by way of deep introspection and divine healing. Fractured, Yet Healing is for the Soul: it is a work intended to promote a culture of healing and illuminate its plausibility.
“Alternately poignant, evocative, wrenching, exquisite, haunting, bright, and magical, Fractured, Yet Healing is filled with insights and epiphanies that constantly surprise with their freshness.”
—Bobby Fishkin, co-leader of CrowdDoing.World
“Andra Durham’s book of poems and art implies a heroic journey. She does not disappoint. The first poem in the collection, ‘Naked,’ states that to see, one must ‘Remove the coins.’ Her thrill for language and granular movements affects the reader and each word in the manuscript. The art is blocked color, urban and tribal, while devils, planets, and orange doors are in meditation. The images combine to elicit visual emotions from the reader and adhere to the poetry.”
—Austin Allen James, visiting assistant professor of English, Texas Southern University
