An extraordinary debut literary page-turner with echoes of Madame Bovary and Anna Karenina.

Exploring themes of love, loss, and the complexities of human relationships, this poetry collection delves into the nuances of language and self-discovery. The poems blend the musicality of Gerard Manley Hopkins with the sharp wit of Dorothy Parker and the emotional intensity of Emily Dickinson. Through a range of emotions, from ecstasy to heartbreak, the work captures the intricacies of connection and the truths that emerge from the interplay of words. The collection is both candid and richly expressive, making it a profound literary experience.
