Performance

If alarms didn't exist, I'm afraid I would never wake up.



Performance captures moments of despair, insecurity, and wisdom through poems, songs, and drawings. In her debut collection, Jul pulls back the curtain and invites the reader on her path of growth, sharing intimate experiences of grief, jealousy, anger, and heartbreak. Inside these pages, readers will delve into how we all put on a performance when we feel like we can't act as our most authentic selves, highlighting the reality of healing, empowerment, and acceptance. Performance takes readers through a journey of raw emotions and growing pains that many of us face, and illustrates how, although vulnerability is difficult, it is ultimately the key to getting back up over and over again, and choosing yourself.
