She Who Destroys the Light: Fairy Tales Gone Wrong
The best fairy tales are the untold stories, the ones where the powerless take back their power and emerge as the victors, but not before enduring a long, arduous battle with the self and the world.
In her debut poetry collection, ‘She Who Destroys The Light: Fairy Tales Gone Wrong,’ Shahida Arabi candidly explores the themes of destruction and resurrection, unraveling the dark realities of trauma, gaslighting, heartbreak and the survivor’s convoluted journey to freedom, healing, creativity and self-love. This collection provides an uncensored and raw exploration into the complexities of adversity and agency, offering a rare glimpse of what it truly means to survive and rise again from the impact of emotional and psychological violence.
Shahida’s article 50 Shades Of Gaslighting: Disturbing Signs An Abuser Is Twisting Your Reality is one of the most viral on the internet regarding the topic of gaslighting.
