But I Don't Feel Empowered
Suri Chan
(Author)Description
But I Don't Feel Empowered is Suri Chan's debut collection of honest, free-verse and whimsically illustrated poems. She explores themes of heartbreak, womanhood, and trauma from the lens of a queer Asian woman coming of age.
This collection is earnest in its belief that healing is about accepting your emotions as they are. And in a world that asks you to be empowered at all times, it asks you to just be.
Deeply moving and thought-provoking, But I Don't Feel Empowered solidifies Suri as an artist to watch and a voice to root for.

About the Author
Suri is a migrant from a long line of migrants. Her work is inspired by her ancestors - the ones who created food that tasted like home with the herbs of their new land. Their ingredients were simple: nuts, shredded veggies, sweet sauce. But the resulting meal was always grand.
Suri likes to think she does the same with everyday words.
