Book design Jean-François Poliquin
With Your Teeth in My Heart is a poetry collection that explores the connection between memory—both personal and collective—and how it manifests in our bodies, in our words and in our intentions. Adriana seeks to bridge the gap between the dream state and lived experience, using language that is detailed and lyrical, but always accessible, with a clear fascination for the untold stories of women, stepping into your power, and how to let go of what no longer serves you.
