About this listen

I proudly dedicate this English-French edition to my 11-year-old self. As a survivor of ritualized mental cruelty and sexual abuse, I have always found strength and solace in the power of my words. In this collection of poems, Resilience, I boldly weave dark tales of strength—a living testament to the extraordinary ability of the human spirit to conquer even the most formidable challenges.

From the whispered prayers of a child to the triumphant cries of an adult, these poems explore the profound strength within each of us. I witness the resilience of the mind, body, and spirit as we confront life's inevitable hurdles and emerge even stronger.

The poems in Resilience delve into universal themes, including: friendship, love, death, life, self-discovery, hope, corruption and power, loss and grief, sex, mortality, loneliness, justice, and Injustice.

Resilience is far more than mere acceptance of adversity; it is an unwavering determination to rise above every obstacle, seek meaning in the chaos, and embrace the journey as a catalyst for growth and self-discovery.

So, dear listener, let us wholeheartedly open our hearts and minds to the transformative power of resilience. Let us celebrate the triumphs and challenges that life presents to us. And let us remember that we are defined by our actions and courage, beyond the constraints of our circumstances and the failures that may have shaped us. Together, let us harness the power of resilience as we embark on a journey of self-discovery and triumph.

Please note: This audiobook is in French.
