Powerful New Voice -
This lovely little volume of poetry was deeply moving to me. The poet's ability to define the stories around him was a much-needed perspective. These poems are touching, thought-provoking, and will leave you with a sense of warmth.

In this poetry collection Atlas Booth brings up topics that really touched me on a personal level bc I can relate to it.
It is a mixture of timeless themes as well as very relevant themes about society, identity and the struggles we face today in a very relatable way that got really to me and brought me to tears.

There are poems that aren’t happy, and he found a way to express all these complicated feelings in our chests into words that hit close to home. On the other hand he also gives us poems of reassurance, of hope.
They are very relevant to our time and I like his way with words. I felt seen and understood. I‘m glad I got a chance to read his poems.
I am looking forward to read more from him in the future.
