![]() Accompanied by striking and evocative illustrations, the poems in Swimming Lessons reveal the depths of female experience, and are the work of a storyteller who is coming into her own. I've been anticipating Swimming Lessons so long that I can't believe it's actually in. I've now read a graphic novel and a book of poetry. They capture what it feels like to be a young woman in today's image-obsessed world, and how to follow your heart even when the odds are stacked against you. This is the first poetry book I've ever read in its entirety outside of Shel Silverstein, so I've checked off one of my reading goals for the year with this one. Relatable yet deeply intimate, provocative yet comforting, bite-sized yet profound, these beautiful poems are about growing up, falling down, and getting back up again. Through it all, Lili's trademark honesty, optimism, and unique perspective are evident in her first poetry collection. It follows the euphoric beginnings of young love, battling anxiety and depression in the face of fame, and coming to terms with the end of a romance. ![]() ![]() Swimming Lessons is the first collection of poetry from one of the most beloved young actresses working today.
