tion, Nasty Woman, she explores hope, grief, love, loss, and, above all, the experience of learning to love oneself despite not knowing how. Through her raw and real exploration, Nagel expresses what it's like to be on the messy, wild, and non-linear journey of healing. Nasty Woman is a mirror into what makes all of us unruly, nuanced, and so outrageously human. This is a poetry collection from someone who is trying her best to know herself, to decondition the world's expectations, and, at the end of it all, to love herself unconditionally.
