Requiem & Rebirth is a strikingly illustrated anthology and debut work by author and artist Skyler Rose (@chronicmaverick). In this poignant collection, Skyler reflects on the haunting echoes of an abusive relationship and the weight of past traumas, weaving a narrative of resilience and healing.
With haunting clarity, they recount the paradox of love twisted by pain, evoking a powerful image: "You were so spellbinding that even when you slipped & scraped your claws across my chest I only held you tighter, as I offered to file them down for you."
This anthology is not just a journey through the darkness, but a testament to the transformative power of self-rebirth. A battle cry of a book with an encouragement towards laying down the past and emerging anew.
