Staniella Othello: The Truth About the Lies I Told Myself, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

What happens when the love story you fought for becomes the lie that breaks you?

Told through poems, letters, journal entries, and razorsharp prose, The Truth About the Lies I Told Myself traces devotion as it turns feral-red flags dressed up as romance, silence mistaken for loyalty, endurance mistaken for love. What begins as tenderness becomes evidence: the small bargains, the swallowed words, the body's alarms explained away.

When the fantasy finally breaks, Othello follows the fracture back to its origins-abandonment, predatory attention, the hunger to be chosen-and chooses the holy terror of leaving. In the aftermath, grief is not a lesson but a landscape she must navigate, and truth arrives with a cost. This is heartbreak with teeth. Raw, reflective, and deeply human, it's for anyone who has ever loved someone more than they loved themselves-and is finally ready to come home.
