Beauty in the Breakdown, the debut poetry collection by Renee Lynn Furlow, is a tapestry of pain and joy. This book takes you on a journey through the ups and downs of life in a way only a poet can. It is written for the warriors, the forces of nature who have learned to fight and rise above the challenges thrown at them. There is pain in these lines, but there is hope too. Each piece serves as a reminder that there is beauty in the breakdown. There is magic in it too.
