Description The poems in this book are taken from his novel Slowly It Leaves Me. Following the inexplicable disappearance of his long-term partner, novelist Jonathan Day leaves his city apartment & retreats to his cabin in the mountains, there to ponder his loss in the time of the pandemic, to desperately try & understand the nature of his persistent despair; a despair that quickly turns into an existential crisis of harrowing proportions. To help him come to terms with his PTSD (post-traumatic stress disorder) among other things Jonathan writes poems and searches for inspirational quotes that summarize his state of mind while helping him to look forward to a more positive future. If the poems or quotes or any parts thereof in this book resonate with you at all, then the writing of them will have been worthwhile.
