Bring Down the Chandeliers by Tara Hardy
Tara Hardy’s Bring Down the Chandeliers is a collection about what happens after the worst thing has already happened—a survivor of sexual assault writing through the trauma.
With honesty and grace, Hardy explores the complicated process of living with what she survived, making peace with herself, and working through the trauma of the body. This is not a collection that erases pain, but one that transforms it.
Bring Down the Chandeliers is a powerful reminder that even shattered things can catch the light.
I am not the road of tar. I was only stuck to it.
A wingless, but determined beast.
