About this ebook
A firm believer in wisdom, artistic freedom, and expressionism, Shelby Birch dares to unapologetically tell her story. Through anthological spoken word pieces of identity and love, Lit is a lens into the discourse of questions on womanhood, blackness, awkwardness, and heartbreakall that encompasses her own intersectionality and worldview. Candidly conveyed and overtly honest, each unique piece reflects her lifes journey as she bumbles along the path from youth into adulthood. Lit enlightens. Lit lingers. Get lit with Lit.
