The Book of Fools

Exploring themes of ecological loss and personal grief, this work blends poetry, memoir, and essay to create a rich narrative. The author intertwines his reflections on a plastic-choked ocean with a poignant story of childhood memories and the impact of his mother's death from cancer. Through innovative techniques of "self-erasure," the text invites readers into a multifaceted experience that delves into nonfiction, myth, and aesthetics, ultimately redefining the boundaries of poetry and its potential impact.
