The second full length poetry collection from the #1 New York Times bestselling author of What Kind of Woman.

Kate Baer shot into the literary stratosphere with the publication of her debut poetry collection, What Kind of Woman, which became an instant #1 New York Times bestseller.

Kate's second full-length book of confessional poetry, And Yet, dives deeper into the themes that are the hallmarks of her writing: motherhood, friendship, love, and loss. Taken together, these poems demonstrate the remarkable evolution of a writer and an artist working at the height of her craft, pushing herself and her poetry in a beautiful and impressive way.

Intimate, evocative, and bold, Kate's beguiling poems on modern womanhood firmly position her in the company of Dorianne Laux, Mary Oliver, Maggie Nelson, and other great female poets of our time.

This unforgettable collection explores the landscape of a woman's life with raw honesty and wit:

• Feminist Poetry: Sharp, timely meditations on everything from the myth of the "good mother" to what happens when women realize they only need to feed, love, and birth themselves.
• Poems About Motherhood: Unflinching looks at postpartum realities, toddler tantrums, and the search for selfhood amidst the chaos and joy of family life.
• Love and Loss: Tender, clear-eyed verses on the complexities of long-term partnership, the ghosts of past relationships, and the quiet strength of enduring friendship.
• Poetry for Women: Finding the profound in the everyday-from social media fatigue to the internal monologue in a coffee shop line-with a voice that feels like a conversation with your closest friend.
