Bianca's Books

In her sixth poetry collection, Bianca Bowers returns with her deeply personal writing style that seamlessly weaves cultural references into work that is informed by life experience and inspired by the human condition.

Bowers has the power to send a trickle of meaningful words to a reader or cascade a flood of emotion over them…One reading is not enough, and the biggest problem readers will face is choosing which poem they value the most. — Courtnee Turner Hoyle for Readers’ Favorite

A gripping coming-of-age tale woven through one of the darkest periods in South African history.

I cannot praise this book enough. I would give it more than 5 stars if I could. It moved me in a great way – from utter hopelessness to high triumphs. I cannot recommend it enough. Read it! Read it with an open heart and prepare to be whisked away on a beautiful, terrifying journey. – Laura Maybrooke, Author

Enter the magical world of Butterfly Voyage and be inspired to heal old emotional wounds, rewrite disempowering narratives, and rediscover the magic of authenticity.

Beautiful, a work of art! This book stoked the flames in my heart and spoke to my restlessness. While it was introduced to me as poetry, I place it with in line with the Seth books, Ram Dass, or Emmanuel Book 1. – Amazon USA

In her third book of poetry, Bianca Bowers explores the complexities of love and challenges the convention of monogamy.

In LSSFC, Bowers speaks of love and loss and strength and resilience. Each reading brings out another layer, another shadow, another meaning. Her words are fulcrums upon which she balances emotions.

Like Death and Life, LSSFC is a collection of poems I’ll read again and again. – J.P. McLean, Author

In her second poetry book, Bianca Bowers deconstructs and redefines her identity beyond the confines of domesticity while searching for an unattainable sense of belonging as an Australian immigrant.

This book has chained and taken my heart into custody. The key is forever locked away.
“My immigrant skin remembers its motherland; my roots haunt me at night…”
is amongst my favorite lines. – E.D. Small, Award-Winning Author

PRESSED FLOWERS contains eighty six of my most popular poems from Bianca's first three books: Death and Life (2014), Passage (2015), and Love Is A Song She Sang From A Cage (2016).

Like many of the finest scribes, such as continental Irishmen Beckett and Joyce, Bianca Bowers is an exile. A poet and author originally from South Africa, now living in Australia, she often writes about rootlessness and place, and searches for a definition – or redefines the idea of – “home” in a variety of ways.

Bowers’ poems frequently have a power, whether through the force of the language to which she’s clearly entitled given her eloquence, through a compulsion to claim the aforementioned space, or to articulate themes such as motherhood and aspects of the feminine.

There is a very creative exploitation of language throughout this collection. What we can assume to be a road surface, hot underfoot, is described as “solar-powered tar”; in the same poem, a “secret sin” is apparently sent out as a bottled message into the sea in an act of catharsis. In this and other work, Bowers has a remarkable capacity to surprise.

There are images and ideas throughout Bowers’ work to inspire further thoughts and ideas, concepts and themes that leave this reader both contemplative and envious in an “I wish I’d thought of that” way.

~ Richard Gibney, Editor of Yeah Magazine

Death and Life is the first poetry book by Bianca Bowers, and includes poems and essays written between 1987 and 2013. Dedicated to those who struggle in their youth, and autobiographical in nature, she invites you to journey through various psychological, emotional, and spiritual experiences to discover why death is not isolated to physical loss, but extends to figurative deaths that arise from larger themes such as patriarchy, abuse, depression, love, exile, belonging, and identity.

It’s like reading a refined journal that you wrote long ago– one that touches you to the core and captures everything you ever thought you knew of the mystery of life and death and love.

Perfection! Amazing perfection!
