Overview

Bestselling and Goodreads Choice Award-winning author Trista Mateer returns with another mythical approach to self-care in her newest poetry collection, Persephone Made Me Do It.  Following her previous work in this series, Mateer weaves together mythology, tarot, poetry, and conversation to reveal a new side of a very old story. Alternating between the perspectives of poet and goddess, Persephone’s lore is explored, related to modern issues, and ultimately reclaimed. 'You want to talk about duality? You want to talk about love? Let us speak instead of chaos.' In this new collection of art and feminist verse from Trista Mateer, Persephone might have flowers in her hair — but she is out for blood.
