I’m so happy to announce that my book ‘Relative Traumas’ is now available for purchase on Amazon (you can reach out to request non-amazon copies). I was so fortunate to have so many talented people on board for this project, thank you to everyone involved.

More on ‘Relative Traumas’

Songwriter, musician, and poet Nadia Garofalo is a throwback to the dark romanticism of Byron and all who felt deeply, intensely, piercingly. This debut collection of poetry examines the exquisite pain of chasing your dreams and the urgent need to live passionately. Her writing is raw, edgy, and unapologetic, with a tendency to revive the reader in the way that one is revived by putting their hands in cool water. Garofalo condenses observations of heredity and personal history alongside the humming piques of desire and complex relationships. Her confessional words might as well be sung for all the power they possess, imploring to the void for more. There is such a stirring rendition of urgent living here that it quickens the pulse, stirs what was once thought long dead, and awakens us to the potency that is poetry. (-Candice Louisa Daquin)

Featuring Illustrations by Tavi Veraldi, Bianca Xunise, Jettila Lewis, Cindy Bernhard, and more.
