Guardian Angel is a collection of poems from the acclaimed poet, Amy Kaur. Taking the reader on a journey through life, the poems chart the story of a young Asian woman, brought up in a strict Indian family and forced into an arranged marriage to an abusive husband.
The poetry tells of her longings for love and acceptance, of the harsh realities of life with an abusive husband who regularly would beat and threaten to kill her, through to escape back to the hands of parents who forced her into another arranged marriage for the cycle to repeat itself all over again.
From the depths of a mental breakdown and being sectioned to the process of rebuilding her life to find happiness, inner peace and acceptance for the past, this collection of poems show how abuse need not last forever and that the future can be bright.
