An illustrated poetry collection about finding light in the darkness. Set against the backdrop of the Lebanese Civil War and the author's turbulent family life, Child of the Moon is a powerful reflection on her journey through fear, shame and despair, and the unconditional love that helped her begin to heal from childhood trauma.
In between being your mother and father,
I forgot to be your daughter
And became the child of the moon
