One: a poetry collection

by A.L.D. Chalom

"One" is the debut poetry collection by Swedish author A.L.D Chalom. Her poetry has amassed a great following on various social media platforms such as Instagram, Twitter and Facebook, where she started writing under the name printpoetics (@printpoetics) as what she calls a "productive procrastination" while editing her first full length novel. This collection is filled with never-seen material and so far unpublished poetry. The collection asks questions about how we live, learn, treat and interact with our environment, be it the people around us, the nature we live in, or the behaviors we come across in our society. This is a poetry collection for anyone who is ready to question how they rub off and what footprint they leave. But above all, this is a poetry collection for anyone willing to treasure and open their eyes to the uniqueness in every person and every place they touch.

Miss Chalom's writing style is very unique and refreshing! Her book ONE is a well written collection of poems! A few of my favourites are 'You're missing out,' 'You thanked the air,' and 'Just basic maths.'
