Marissa LaPorte, GVSU class of 2018, recently published a poetry collection: Dead Grandmas Are Universal Dead Grandmas Are Universal is a raw, intimate poetry collection that traces the emotional inheritance of trauma, grief, queerness, mental illness, and survival through the lens of womanhood. Across deeply confessional free verse poems, the author explores complicated legacies passed down through generations of women: addiction, abuse, self-destruction, resilience, and the desperate longing to be loved without disappearing in the process.
