The Beautiful Reaper

The Beautiful Reaper is a poetic retelling of mythology’s personification of death, the Grim Reaper. In this poetry anthology, Death experiences a metamorphosis, thereby emerging as a feminine entity who dares to fall in love with a mere mortal. Expressed in alternating voices, tales of forbidden love, desire, obsession, heartache, and sorrow are weaved through each poem and piece of prose in this collection of dark romance poetry. The poems flow together like a saga and are meant to be read as such, but can also be savored if read individually. Connect with the author on Instagram @ruhipoetry for more.
