Sketches: A poetic study of self, technology, and society
Description
Drawing curiosity from the relentless race for attention and validation playing out daily in pixels and data packets, Sketches examines our shared humanness as it tumbles down the internet rabbit hole.
Each poem parses the odds of forging deep, meaningful bonds through interfaces and filters. When our every gesture panders to the online cult of appearances and a myriad voices are chasing the spotlight, poetry offers a different reflection.
A heartfelt and unflinching attempt to reconcile our inner and outer worlds, Nuno Ricardo's second book is a timely plea for honest connectedness.
