Love, loss, witchcraft, avocado toast, and storming the patriarchy: an inclusive poetic perspective on millennial life.
The ocean is one of the greatest metaphors: the ebb and flow of love and loss, the tumultuous emotions that roil beneath a blue-calm surface, the search for meaning in the endless horizons of sea and sky. On an Ebbing Seafoam Tide is a deep dive into reflections on the calms and tempests of everyday life.
Alannah Radburns poetry floats to the surface amidst the messy chaos of personal relationships and societal constructs, and comes together in a relatable perfect storm of practical wisdom. If youve ever felt like you were drowning in feelings or searching to find meaning in todays turbulent times, you will find a lifeline in these poems.
"With grace and beauty, these poems are snapshots of a world worth getting lost in. Its charm will linger with you for days to come." Caitlin Conlon, author of The Surrender Theory
"With words like lyrics ... Alannah give us a story of hope. On An Ebbing Seafoam Tide is just as ethereal as the title suggests, with beautiful vulnerability flowing through the pages." Jessyca Thibault, author of The Dollhouse Trilogy and The Bittersweet Memories Trilogy
"Every poem is laced with a soft, comforting undertone. Alannah manages to paint a delicate love language, one that at time feels as if you're eavesdropping between two lovers." Angelea Lowes, author of Sunset Lavender
Alannah Radburn lives with her partner and two guinea pigs in Gatineau, Quebec. She began writing poetry on Canadas west coast, and although she is currently landlocked far from the ebbing tides of the Pacific that first inspired her, nature continues to be her muse. She has been published in multiple literary magazines, and firmly believes in the healing powers of human storytelling and the restorative effects of jasmine green tea.
