A "surprising and powerful" (The Millions) book of poetry that's small enough to carry with you, but full of messages big enough to stay with you--from one of the most quotable and influential poets of our time, the subject of the award-winning film Come See Me in the Good Light.

Just to be clear, I don't want to get out without a broken heart. I intend to leave this life so shattered there better be a thousand separate heavens for all my flying parts.

In Take Me With You, Andrea Gibson explores themes of love, gender, politics, sexuality, family, and forgiveness with stunning imagery and a fierce willingness to delve into the exploration of what it means to heal and to be different in this strange age.

Illustrated throughout with evocative line drawings by Sarah J. Coleman, this book is divided into three sections: On Love, On the World, and On Becoming. Written in one-liners, couplets, greatest hits phrases, and longer-form poems, it has something for everyone, and is destined to be placed in stockings, lockers, and the hands of anyone who could use its wisdom.
