by Stephanie Parent (Author)
Stephanie Parent's second poetry collection, Cinder Girl Grows Wings, tells a dark fairy tale about the author's descent into the underworld of BDSM. Parent's poems explore both the beauty and ugliness of working at a Los Angeles dungeon and navigating a tumultuous dom-sub relationship. Drawing inspiration from fairy-tale heroines, film noir, and the landscape of L.A., Cinder Girl Grows Wings takes readers on a journey through the shadow side of sadomasochism, toward self-acceptance and healing.
