Recycle Me: Collected Poems Made from 100% Recycled People

In this powerful debut collection, Heather Evans explores the quiet transformations that shape a life. Recycle Me is a poetic journey through emotional and physical renewal: where every cell, every memory, and every heartbreak is repurposed into something new.

Structured around the stages of recycling (Collect, Sort, Shred, Process, Manufacture, By-Product, Made New) Heather traces her evolution from who she was to who she is becoming. These poems reflect on love, chronic illness, and the search for connection, offering readers a raw and lyrical meditation on impermanence and resilience.

Perfect for readers who find beauty in change and strength in vulnerability, Recycle Me is a reminder that nothing lasts forever and that's where its magic lies.

For fans of contemporary poetry, LGBTQ+ voices, and deeply personal storytelling.
