At What Point

At what point do we figure it out // does it get easier // will we find the answers // will I feel okay?

Caitlin O'Ryan's debut collection is a journey of mirror smashing and everything we have come to accept being called into question. With deep vulnerability and wit, she invites us to look inside of ourselves and to interrogate what we find there. Fuelled by the times that we are living in, her poems vibrate through the pages, grabbing you with a sense of urgency that says 'you are not alone, I also feel this'.

Taken from her live performances and featuring her viral poem At What Point which has amassed millions of views online and culminated in her being invited onto BBC Woman's Hour, this book will light a fire in you that will continue to burn long after you have put it down.
