By Laura Barber
 
In her debut poetry anthology, Laura Barber draws inspiration from the Greek Goddess Persephone, using her myth to explore the multifaceted experience of being a woman in modern society.

The collection is divided into four evocative sections: Kore (the maiden), Spring (the goddess), Death (the queen), and Persephone (the woman). Each part delves into a different phase of Persephone's life, reflecting on the complexity and depth of the female journey. Through vivid imagery and powerful verse, Barber captures the essence of transformation, motherhood, resilience, and identity.
 
Laura is a proud feminist and is passionate about highlighting bi-erasure, everyday racism and encouraging self-love.
