Despite the harsh criticism targeting her minimalist and simple writing style embellished with her own illustrations, Kaur makes her voice heard throughout the world via the Internet- especially the social media- by sharing her poems on the Instagram. The poet divided her milk and honey (2014), into four parts; in each of the four parts which symbolizes a different stage of a woman's life replete with fears, challenges, struggles and hopes, she not only talks about the sufferings of women and female empowerment but also with her illustrations, she attracts many readers visually. Hence, this chapter analyses Rupi Kaur's milk and honey from a feminist perspective by focusing on victimization and commodification of women as well as women empowerment with regard to her non- traditional writing style. © 2023 Peter Lang Group AG, Lausanne.
