About This Event

Boulder Bookstore welcomes poet Brittany Hart presenting Surviving Wonderland: A Journey Beyond Control on Thursday, February 19, 2026, at 6:30 PM. What happens when faith becomes a cage? Hart spent six years inside a high-control religious group where love looked like control, devotion meant erasure, and questioning was betrayal. Through haunting, visceral poetry using Alice in Wonderland as a metaphor, Hart traces her journey from spiritual manipulation to freedom—navigating the disorientation of religious abuse and finding a path beyond control. This powerful collection offers a map for anyone escaping coercive groups, toxic relationships, or systems demanding unquestioning obedience. Perfect for survivors of spiritual abuse, cult recovery communities, poetry lovers, and those supporting loved ones leaving high-control situations. Author talk and book signing. $5 tickets include $5 coupon.
