Illuminate Bethany Mae Flanders

"Illuminate: Finding Poetry in the Paradox" is a debut collection of Bethany's most honest and spontaneously penned poems, written over the course of four years. Her eclectic philosophical, personal, introspective, and relational perspectives offer themes which transcend the conventions of traditional modern poetry. She draws from love, fear, hope, loss, and faith to invite her reader to ponder alongside her as she takes inspiration from people, places, memories, music, and her educational background. Bethany's words offer a glimpse into her unique life and worldview in a way that is distinctively her own, yet refreshingly relatable.
