Publisher's Synopsis
This is about survival. About living in a body that betrays you and a world that gaslights your pain. The Epic of Lu, Part 2 continues Lu's story not with chapters, but with soul fragments, poetry and prose stitched together by raw truth, defiant humor, and the weight of unspoken grief.
In this Part, Lu doesn't preach. She remembers. She unpacks moments lost to time, people who shaped her, and pain that etched itself into her skin. There are no saints here, only the kind of strength that looks like honesty and sounds like laughter between sobs. Whether she's talking about family, chronic illness, mortality, or the silent war of being misunderstood, Lu does it with bite, beauty, and brutal clarity.
This isn't a guidebook. It's a gut check. A mirror for anyone who's ever been forced to choose between disappearing or writing their way back into existence.
Read it slow. Read it crooked. Just read it real.
