In This Macrocosm There Is A Rose by Fin Rose Aborizk is a collection so honest and raw, it basically moved me to tears.
Fin Rose’s recounting of heartbreak is something I felt very deeply in my chest; she did not pull her punches—and this remains true as the poetry moves on and evolves into new love: they make sure you can feel that love just as deeply as you felt the ache.
Reading pieces like "Why Can’t I Just Live In Poetry?," "I’m Just A Poet," "The House Became Abandoned & Full Of Ghosts," "Dreams Come True," and so many more—made me feel seen, comforted, like the words were wrapping their arms around my heart.
I sometimes feel like such a cynic, and if this is you too, you might think a collection of love poems is not for you—but In This Macrocosm There Is A Rose will make you wish you were the star that fell simply to smell the rose. There is not a single poem in this collection that won’t make you feel unburdened.
With this collection of poetry, Fin Rose wields a talent for touching the corners of your heart you didn’t know needed to be brought back to life.
To say I loved this book, simply wouldn’t do it justice—I feel like reading In This Macrocosm There Is A Rose healed something in me.
