What can one say about INK BLOTS: Volume 1 that has not already been said about Shakespeare or Wordsworth? The poetry is refreshing in its straightforwardness and other multisylabic superlatives. Perhaps the best term one can use to describe this eclectic and bohemian tome is “available”. Do you need a non-demoninational holiday gift for the hipster in your life? Do you wish to impress the creative bearded peoples in your social circle? INK BLOTS: Volume 1 is the perfect answer. Despite being Volume 1 this poetry magnum opus goes to 11.

A great compilation of poetry! I don't want to choose favorites so I will just say that I thoroughly enjoyed it from the first to the last. I really liked the diversity in style which I thought added a great depth to the collection. I would highly recommend!
