Love: Stories, Poems and Essays
Love. It is a beautiful mess of complex, confusing and interconnecting emotions. For some, it means romance, for others, family. There are those who understand love as empowerment, resistance and existence; those who say it is created from nothing; and those who believe it is always there, binding the universe together, waiting for us to find it and grab on tight.
In this mesmerising collection of stories, poems and essays from the award-winning team of Sweatshop Literacy Movement, you are invited to take a journey through dingy streets and pristine sunsets, delve deep into the tormented soul, and attempt to make sense of that big crazy thing called the human heart.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
