Lyric Poetry & Drama

An impressive and though-provoking collection from GRAMMY nominated artist and poet Courtney Marie Andrews.

With the same vulnerability and timelessness as her debut collection Old Monarch, Love Is a Dog That Bites When It’s Scared acknowledges the layers to our feelings, experiences, and humanity. Inspired by her own life, Courtney Marie Andrews speaks gently to love and its many layers. She comforts readers with the knowledge that though love is confusing, unorganized, bewitching, and often too hard, it is also magical, and surreal, and always worth it.
