Description

Drive Here and Devastate Me is a powerful and honest exploration of love, queerness, and the triumph over shame.

Falley's words shock you with their raw honesty, whether delivered with sharp wit or detailed imagery.

It is evident that the author is not only madly in love with her partner, whom she writes both idiosyncratic and sultry poems for, but also with the very essence of language and the power of dismantling shame.

These poems fearlessly tackle pressing issues like gun violence, toxic masculinity, LGBTQ* struggles, and the oppression of women's bodies. Megan Falley's much-anticipated fourth collection of poetry, confronts the complexities of life with unapologetic courage.

Critical Reviews

"Megan Falley's fourth collection of poetry is a love letter to the queer community. Though it includes more than a handful of personal love poems and breakup poems, the jam-packed volume...wrestles with subjects close to our collective heart: love and heartbreak, yes, but also shame, mental health, fear, femme invisibility, gun violence, body positivity, toxic masculinity, and self love...Falley puts words to the feelings that haunt us at dusk and delight us at dawn."
-Autostraddle

"Falley is electric. Unapologetic...her spoken-word poetry is heart-pounding advice for anyone looking to live an unabashed, unashamed, unrepentant life... Falley has turned her personal experiences into public prose, exposing her queerness and the raw chasm between self-confidence and self-doubt. She's dissected moments in her own life that've helped her and her listeners comprehend a woman's existence on Earth."
-Boulder Weekly
