Hurt by the Sun is a collection of poetry and prose that takes the reader through the transformative process from heartbreak and anger to healing and rebirth. Across its four parts, these poems dive into the idea that we, as humans, aren’t defined by a single moment or event. Instead, we are a collection of experiences and memories that shape who we are and who we are becoming. D.W. Alexander’s Hurt by the Sun is profoundly fearless and painfully vulnerable as it speaks to the power and beauty of self-love and self-acceptance. We aren’t alone in our shared life experiences and the full spectrum of human emotion is on display in these pages. Give yourself the opportunity to experience them.
