The Bones in the Garden is an intense, thought-provoking collection of poetry. Michaud’s verses interweave love, passion, trauma, and history into an emotional and inspiring journey. Her ability to unearth beauty within the scars of American slavery and folklore is haunting yet transformative—a testament to her masterful storytelling and cultural reverence.

From brutal wounds inflicted by oppressors and history to the arteries of love and the mystical, Elizabeth casts spells with poetry that finds its way into your heartland and settles in your bones. Highly recommend this journey through banshees, thunderstorms, injustice, “ghosts that demand recollection,” love lost and found, and fragrant words that linger long after you close the book.
