For readers of Sylvia Plath and lovers of raw and defiant inner truths, Sadia Hakim offers a visual poetry book that feels like a soul remembering itself - wounded, watchful, and unapologetically human.
This debut collection blends confessional and journal-style reflections with psychological depth, exploring themes of rage, trauma, tender things that make life worth living, and the sacred discomfort of self-confrontation. The Weight of Tender Things is for those who feel everything, who read between the lines, who sense the unspoken, and who have learned to stand firm in a world that often demands their softness without offering safety. It is not just visual poetry. It is a confession. A mirror to the parts of you that have been silenced, mishandled, or seen as too much.

This is a fully colored special edition paperback thoughtfully designed as both a visual and emotional experience. Each page invites interaction, whether through highlighting, annotations, or simply pausing to absorb the art and words. It's more than a book. It's a keepsake for those who want to make it uniquely their own.
