"The poetry collection „The Latter“ offers a profound and emotional reading experience. The collection permeates themes of self-doubt, inner struggle and the pursuit of personal fulfilment, which are conveyed in a powerful and intimate way"

"Hellscape was my favorite poem before the conversation started. The choice to describe the lowest place you can be as one of comfort was something I had never seen before and something that felt so true to my own life."

"You have captured depression in more than just words, you have done it in actions. Most people view depression as just feeling down, but it is more than that. Your initial passage, regarding being able to pick things up in terms of hobbies but putting them down due to a perceived lack of skill, that to me is depression personified. I have never heard it described quite like that, and that beginning alone set the tone for me of the entire story. That was thought provoking, and I think a lot of your readers will take time to think about the implications of that."
