About this series

Join award-winning poet Kevin Shlosberg as he chronicles coming-of-age in his newest poetry collection To Say This is the Way One Man Went.

Having rejected Western religion and its attendant dogmas & morals at an early age, Kevin writes his way through the brambles of anxiety, fear, & depression to lighter days of mindfulness and happiness, etc. All the while, we find his poetry concerned with creating an existentially-authentic life, more or less.

90+ poems, approx. 100 pp. themes include (but not limited to): road-going, cats, crows, dreams, papayas, travel, zen, drugs, sex, rock n' roll, blood, domesticity, mountains, love, triangles, love-triangles, solipsism, art, friendship, scholarship, dictatorship, pigeons, and puppetry.

Hailed as "superbly disturbing" and "beautifully crafted", To Say This is the Way One Man Went is the quintessential collection from a fresh voice in contemporary poetry.

Fun times guaranteed!
