Self-Induced Regicide

More about the book

In Self-Induced Regicide, Canadian writer, Ryan Blair, embarks on a journey of self-reflection through poetry and lyrics, sharing with readers his battles with self-doubt to shed light on our grasp of identity and contemporary attitudes towards mental health. Expressed with wit and humour, whilst also cutting deep, Ryan's commentary combines unfiltered, intrusive and introverted perspective with a consideration of broader ideologies and philosophies on a wider scale, to deliver a collection which maps a development in thought, retains a reflection on the self, and ultimately moves through periods of trouble and anguish to close on a sense of optimism and acceptance.
