"She found herself lost,
her favourite place to be.
Lost in words. Lost in colour.
In texture and in telling."
In her debut poetry collection Cliffs and Cathedrals: Poems from the Precipice of Healing, Canadian artist and writer Helen Billett weaves words into a medium for healing. Through vivid imagery and the language of visual art-colour, texture, and abstraction-these poems explore trauma, resilience, and the transformative power of art in reclaiming one's story.
A deeply personal journey through grief, renewal, and creativity, this collection is an invitation to lose yourself in art and words-and in the quiet, powerful act of becoming whole.
If you've ever felt like a work in progress, you'll find a friend in these pages.
A perfect read for fans of poetry about healing, grief, and the power of creativity.
