Publisher's summary

Rupi Kaur presents an all-new performance of milk and honey, her number one New York Times best-selling collection of poetry and prose about survival, the experience of violence, abuse, love, loss, and femininity. This new production was recorded in 2021 along with the first-ever recordings of her number one best sellers the sun and her flowers and home body, all of them performed by Rupi Kaur.

The book is divided into four chapters, and each chapter serves a different purpose. Deals with a different pain. Heals a different heartache. milk and honey takes listeners through a journey of the most bitter moments in life and finds sweetness in them - because there is sweetness everywhere if you are just willing to look.

A beautiful way that she describes how her mother made a great impact in her life.

The only thing that I enjoyed about the book was the way the author expressed her happiest emotions

Amazing

Her voice captures my attention
Her words capture my soul
In a few short prose
There are lessons
That reverberate lifetimes

S. Joiner Spero

Powerful description of raw emotions spanning the gamut of fear grief through triumphant rediscovery of power and self acceptance and love of self.

Stunning and Powerful

Came into this absolutely blind. Didn't even know it was poetry. I just recognized the name from an ex-roommate's bookshelf and thought I'd give it a go.
I'm absolutely blown away! Such an all at once beautiful and heartbreaking and empowering piece of work that I will absolutely return to again and again. And the already beautiful words ascend even higher by the author's own narration. An absolutely unquestionable masterpiece.
