Staff Pick

Deeply vulnerable and moving, Katherine Morgan tells stories that are personal and relatable. These essays about heartbreak, loneliness, and corporality hit a tender spot in me, and ultimately left me with a feeling of being less alone. I cannot wait for what Morgan writes next! Recommended By Ariel K., Powells.com

Katherine Morgan deconstructs the end of her relationship in this tiny gem of an essay. Understanding that we see ourselves better through our partner, she longs for the breakup to be less painful, but cherishes the time spent with him. Writing vibrantly about the way her body experiences her loss — the shame, the self-hatred, the inadequacy — and facing the loneliness head-on, she illuminates the wound almost all of us carry. Morgan tells us that love is a mirror, a test, a promise, a story, and that life is rich, and that the corporeality of it is both a bane and bliss. So perfectly done with texture and heft, this is a tiny slice of a life deeply lived and perfectly rendered. Beautiful. Recommended By Dianah H., Powells.com
