<p>In Samantha Nagel's poetry collection <em>Nasty Woman</em> she explores hope grief love loss and above all the experience of learning to love oneself despite not knowing how. Through her raw and real exploration Nagel expresses what it's like to be on the messy wild and non-linear journey of healing. <em>Nasty Woman</em> is a mirror into what makes all of us unruly nuanced and so outrageously human. This is a poetry collection from someone who is trying her best to know herself to decondition the world's expectations and at the end of it all to love herself unconditionally.</p>
