Poetry of the Human Condition: The Ups and Downs of Modern Living Paperback – May 2, 2018

by R. J. Schwartz (Author)

Purchase options and add-ons

Poetry of the Human Condition is a collection of original poems that were influenced by day to day events of modern living. It covers topics ranging from the highest highs to the lowest lows and everything in-between. This collection takes the reader on a roller-coaster ride which stops frequently, and without warning. One unique aspect of this work is how it has been arranged, with no specific chapters or categorization; mimicking how life happens. Each poem is a peek into an event, or series of events, which most of us have faced at one time of another, for better or for worse. We taste the sweetness of victory, the dark cloud of a passing loved one, the impact of technology, the past, and so much more; often experiencing many of these in a single day. It’s a unique journey that everyone will be able to relate to; simply put, it's the ups and downs of modern living.
