Bloodletting: a spellbook in verse

Bloodletting is not just a poetry collection, it's a spellbook, a ritual, and a resurrection. Born from blood, bone, and fire, these poems navigate rage, grief, limerence, shame, and the violence of being asked to be someone you're not. Rachael Schwartz carves out space for those who feel too much, too deeply, and have been told that's too dangerous.

This debut collection is for the ones who've been silenced, dissected, discarded, and chose to speak anyway. To write anyway. To live anyway.

Whether you're still bleeding or learning to burn, this book will not flinch from your truth.

Includes:

• Over 75 pages of poetry, prose, and personal ritual
• A reader dedication page for your own "bloodletting"
• Final words of affirmation and reclamation
