alex opal

A collection of Alex Opal’s works from 2022. Complete with tales of neurodivergence, Queerness, childhood trauma, sexual assault, and other vulnerabilities, this collection has two volumes within it. They both will have you exasperated by the end. The true accounts of Alex Opal’s poetry and prose are what make them so unique among young poets striving for a name of sorts, whenever that time may be. They completed the second volume after a major traumatic event and no longer felt themselves. Everything was off, and they isolated heavily during this time. They still tend to isolate, but not with so much rigor. There are also true accounts of childhood trauma contained herein. It is a collection that will leave you wondering what you just read.
