Butcher's Granddaughter

The Butcher's Granddaughter by Adela Sinclair is a lyrical prose poetry collection that weaves together themes of resilience, identity, and the complexities of family history.

Through vivid imagery and tender reflection, Sinclair examines the fragility and strength of human connections, paying homage to the sacrifices and triumphs of generations past while grappling with the echoes of memory and heritage. This poignant debut is a celebration of love, survival, and the enduring power of storytelling.
