Secrets & Stars
For the wolven creatures and
the feral den mothers
For the heartbroken dreamers
reclaiming their voices, their time, their wholeness.
For everyone who refuses to be tamed.
For you, my gently rebellious seekers,
my fiercely sensitive kin,
I offer you a piece of my heart.

Reviews
Audrey - so beautiful
“I am a poet too, and maybe that's why this little book of poetry feels like one of the most beautiful things I've ever read. All I know is that it's going on my bookshelf and it will be read a thousand times, and I will buy more copies and give them as gifts. I cried and it broke my heart and yet it made me feel full. And it touched me on a cellular level.”
Shannon - Magical and moving
“There is nothing to not love about this poetry collection and the magical, moving words of Alix Klingenberg. The editing of the book is so intentional. The first piece “Introduction” lured me in with such sensitive storytelling and vivid imagery. The final title piece, “Secrets and Stars” offered closure but left me wanting more. If you want to be allowed to feel, if you want to be transported to the darkness and the forests and the deepest parts of yourself, and most importantly, if you love foxes and the moon, buy Secrets & Stars.”
Katarina - I love this poetry more than I can say
“If you enjoy poetry you will love this... it is one of the most beautiful collections of words and with such an evocative use of language... it resonates deeply on a very personal level and expresses dark moments in a way that touches my soul. I am in love with this book. I have so far purchased 3- one for myself of course, and then 2 as gifts because it is too special not to share.”
