Relationships

Rachel Clift

From R. Clift comes so intimately a collection of memories, a snapshot of her heart, like nothing she has ever written or shared before. A travel memoir written in poetry, of backpacking through Europe in the summer of 2019. Filled with daily poem entries, imperfect polaroids, never-to-be-sent postcards, and 3-hour-train-ride illustrations all pulled from the pages of her journals. This memoir began as a personal challenge, whatever her next trip was- she would write a poem a day. Would she see growth? Would they be more about the place or about how she was feeling? What would she discover? She didn't know. But she wanted to find out. So, she wrote all through Spain, Italy, Greece, and England. When her last poem ended with the line 'until we meet again' she knew this endeavor had become bigger than herself. For a while, the poems sat unread, and she wasn't sure if they ever would be. She was afraid to share these words at first, afraid it was too real, messy, raw, flawed- until she realized that is the very reason it should be shared. If you have found this book, it's for a reason. This book is for anyone who has ever felt lost within themselves. For the runaway broken hearts looking for a place to heal, to rest, and to become whole again. For the travelers plagued by wanderlust, who know all too well that one can still ache even in the most beautiful cities on Earth. She can only hope that through her story you might come closer to courage- to let go of what burdens your heart. @r.cliftpoetry First published in November 2019, this second edition now being published in May 2021 has been revised and expanded to add over 70 new pages- including exclusive poems that were originally left out of the first edition.

From R. Clift, comes her first collection of ekphrastic poetry. This book was written during visits to the Walker Art Gallery, Lady Lever Art Gallery, Tate Liverpool, Tate Britain, and The National Gallery in London during her travels abroad in February 2022. 
Ekphrastic poetry is a conversation between poetry and art. The poet interprets the art and then creates a narrative that represents their reaction to it. It is one of the oldest forms of writing, with its meaning having originated in ancient Greece. 
From speaking to the artwork itself to becoming the voice of some sculpture or painting- R. Clift explores perspective, themes beyond the canvas or surface of marble, and what it means to authentically experience, react, and relate to art.\nrcliftpoetry.com @r.cliftpoetry

Unsent Love Letters: An Anthology of Words Left Unspoken

Unsent Love Letters

Unknown, Author

"The city mirrors her own soul- restless, stubborn, desperate to belong." - pg. 9 A book for those who've ever like they don't belong- in an unfamiliar place or room of strangers, in the arms of someone breaking their heart, in the depths of their own mind. It is for those who find themselves searching for meaning, even in the smallest things. From R. Clift, comes her seventh full collection of poetry. 'Voices in Giant Cities' is a book of poems written on location around the world. R. Clift traveled to six giant cities to notice them, to capture them, to better understand them. To claim moments from each city as her own, to allow them to be her muse. To learn how to love them- and the most secretive parts of herself- piece by piece, poem by poem. Travel through the eyes of an artist to see New York City, Los Angeles, Paris, Rome, Edinburgh, and London in a way you have likely never experienced before. Relive iconic locations, discover hidden gems, and carry this book with you the next time you visit one of these cities- and maybe, just maybe- you will see them in a way a poet once did. @r.cliftpoetry rcliftpoetry.com
