Desolation and Epiphany
James W. a.
In his sophomore title and first pure poetry collection, James W. A. explores the duality found in the journey of one’s soul. Drawing from his own history, observations, and imagination, he conjures the misery of younger days, the peace of more mature ones, and the meanings of life and love in both. Found within these pages are stories, musings, dreams, hopes, and emotions that show a progression from sorrow into joy, and the shades of each in the other. Pour a glass, open your heart, and prepare to venture forth with the titular concepts to experience for yourself the darkness of Desolation and the triumphant elation of Epiphany.
