Split: A Poemoir is a memoir written in verse about one woman's struggle to choose between two loves: her ex-husband or her new boyfriend. This poemoir illustrates the conflicting emotions of a broken heart- relief and regret. It combines the wisdom (or lack thereof) of middle age with the fairy tale ideals (more like oblivion) of a new, blossoming relationship. This raw and poignant collection explores such compelling themes as self-realization, acceptance, and letting go. Also included is A Tale of Two Philips: The Fairy Tale Companion to Split. It tells the story from a slightly different angle, complete with princesses, princes, dragons, and giants.
