Sexually repressed, separated Greek Girl on a rampage. There’s no love here just f--ks. But is she f--king him or f--king herself? Initially a self-published zine, which sold out repeatedly, Love and F--k Poems became a revamped Deluxe Edition book, and went on to be an Australian poetry bestseller, also translated into Greek. Love and F--k Poems continues to shock, captivate and enthral with this special ten-year anniversary edition, which incorporates Koraly’s original zine drawings and one extra poem. A trailblazing story told through poetry of migrant culture, divorce, repression, dating, relationships, love, and the maddening scurry to find the sexual self. "I am so obsessed with Koraly.
