A Decade

by Samm Joyy

The debut poetry collection from Samm Joyy. Taken from deep experiences from 2012 to 2022, A Decade focuses on how one comes to grip with the darker aspects of one's own personality, grows to accept them, and eventually grows to feel comfortable with showing them to the world. A brutally honest work that examines not only the poet herself but Newfoundland culture, touching on alcoholism, the arts, and downtown life.Raw and real, A Decade takes readers through shared experience as only a gifted artist can.
