A #1 New York Times Bestseller
A #1 Amazon Bestseller
A book like no other, I Am Maria weaves Shriver’s hard-earned wisdom with her own deeply personal poetry. I Am Maria reminds readers there is strength and love on the other side of all of our hardest days.
I Am Maria is a powerful collection of Maria Shriver’s own poems that grapple with identity, grief, love, loss, longing, heartbreak and healing.
Her deeply personal poems address life’s transitions, challenges, successes and failures. Vulnerable and deeply moving, Shriver’s words are a collection of her life experiences woven into poetry to inspire everyone on their own journey. It is also an invitation for readers to write their own personal poetry, reclaiming the art as accessible to everyone and a tool to look within.
I Am Maria is a roadmap for anyone trying to shed the labels, layers, and armor that holds us back from creating a wildly authentic and meaningful life.
“I never imagined writing poetry would help me embark
On a journey deep into myself
I never imagined that everything I sought or thought I needed
Was within me all along”
—from I Am Maria
Editorial Reviews
Editorial Reviews
“In this book, she has opened her soul and allowed all of us—anyone who has ever experienced feelings of loss or grief or not being enough—in. Maria’s poems lead us to the open field, a place of self-love, healing, and home.” —Oprah Winfrey
“She found a way forward after devastating losses: writing poetry. Not literary poetry, but wholly personal poetry expressing and exploring ‘raw, authentic’ emotions.” —Booklist
