She's not normal, why can't she be normal, she makes me feel really uncomfortable... An empowering collection of poetry from bestselling Cypriot-Australian poet Koraly Dimitriadis, for people who are not normal.¿**Please note: for the purposes of "not being normal" there is not, and may never be, an ebook.

In a large, white-picket dream, a married mother selfishly cries. She has everything she ever wanted - a husband, a house, a business degree, a baby - she is at the pinnacle of the migrant dream. Perhaps she needs to return to her medication, the pills she stopped taking to become pregnant. She was taking them for six years. She wasn't allowed to move out of home so she married at twenty-two. Now she is thirty, and it's as if she is looking at her life for the very first time. She is starting to see things. The creativity she had kept buried inside all her life birthed out with her daughter, and now her words are taking on a life of their own.From the author of the Australian poetry bestseller, Love and F--k Poems, Just Give Me The Pills is yet another brilliant story told through poetry by Koraly Dimitriadis, and this special illustrated edition includes drawings by Koraly's daughter. Exploring the challenges of leaving a marriage, divorce, co-parenting, single motherhood, Just Give Me The Pills is a story of a woman's liberation from the chains of migrant culture and repression, and the terror or realising all the choices you've ever made are those you were expected to make, and you have no idea who you really are. It's a story of being silenced, of reclaiming your voice, rebuilding, and finding one's true self.

Sexually repressed, separated Greek Girl on a rampage. There's no love here just f--ks. But is she f--king him or f--king herself? Initially a self-published zine, which sold out repeatedly, Love and F--k Poems became a revamped Deluxe Edition book, and went on to be an Australian poetry bestseller, also translated into Greek. Love and F--k Poems continues to shock, captivate and enthral with this special ten-year anniversary edition, which incorporates Koraly's original zine drawings. A trailblazing story told through poetry of migrant culture, divorce, repression, dating, relationships, love, and the maddening scurry to find the sexual self.
