Product Description
by Dianne C. Braley (Author)
The Heroin Addict's Wife is a collection of twenty-four poems that lays bare the quiet devastation and unspoken truths of loving someone lost to addiction. With unflinching honesty, Dianne C. Braley captures the ache of waiting, the fury of betrayal, and the fragile hope that refuses to die. These poems move through darkness and resilience, giving voice to the silences so many carry alone.
At once intimate and universal, this collection is not just about addiction-it's about survival, memory, and the ways love both saves and scars us. The Heroin Addict's Wife offers a rare and necessary glimpse into the shadows, reminding us that beauty can emerge even from brokenness.
