73 poets from around the world come together in this collection to express what it means to feel without agency, silenced or marginalised, and the subtle ways power dynamics shape our entire existence. In this opulent anthology spanning over 200 pages, diverse voices illuminate the myriad forms that powerlessness takes in this modern world. From the suffocation of societal expectations to the oppression of systemic inequalities, these poets craft a tapestry of human experience that resonates with authenticity. Through verse that is by turns defiant, melancholic and liberating, "Powerless" explores the paradox of finding strength in acknowledging vulnerability.
