From the soul, heart, mind, body and spirit of Lillian Haugland, also
known as Orkidedatter, The Rescue is a collection of dark poetry
inspired by the author's childhood.
The author's crossing points of the physical, psychological and the
imagination are anchored inside this book. Mental health is close to
Lillian's heart, and writing has been one of her methods for overcoming
her demons during the darkest moments in her life.
To communicate that you are not alone in fighting bad memories is the
soulful purpose of this collection of poems. Do not be afraid to face
your worst fears, dive into your mind, and face what you are
experiencing with an open heart. It's not easy, but take a deep breath,
breathe and listen to your body. You can be surprised by how strong you
are.
Read with your eyes, listen with your heart and feel with your mind, and
join in on a therapeutic rise from the fire in the abyss, to have a will
to live a life with your head over the surface. Become the phoenix
rising from the ashes.
