The Apricot Memoirs
The Apricot Memoirs | Tess Guinery
4 posts | 3 read | 4 to read
This romantic fusion of art--poetry, prose, and unbridled creativity--was birthed from one soul's season of adventure and unraveling, inviting us to surrender the great for the greater. What started as a break from Australian artist Tess Guinery's rapidly growing design business turned into an instinctive, playful experiment with words, colors, and sounds--and eventually into a tangible book, The Apricot Memoirs. This collection of poetry and prose, thoughtfully illustrated and printed on colored paper, is infused with grace and playfulness. It explores love, personal growth, creativity, spirituality, vulnerability, and motherhood in the art medium of words, all the while creating a rich portrait of a deeply empathetic, talented, and whimsical artist. Esoteric, mysterious, and unfailingly beautiful, The Apricot Memoirs is an invitation to dig deep, embrace the uncomfortable, and free your creativity, unbound.

A luminous and beautifully written collection of poetry and prose. With themes of spirituality, creativity, motherhood, growth and love, these pages truly glow with depth, alacrity, wisdom and warmth. Guinery advocates for slowness in this busy world. To look around at the beauty of the moment and hold it in our hearts. This collection will envelop you in a comforting light and hold you there to reflect on the artistry of her words. #bookreview

Thank you to Netgalley for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This was a sweet and warm collection of poetry that speaks to that place inside of you that longs for warmth and home. I enjoyed the way the author mixed poetry and prose to convey bits and pieces of the larger picture. This collection made me feel cozy while reading it, and spoke to the parts inside me that are focused on motherhood and family.
