Betta Fish and Backcountry | Nicholas Trieste

1 post | 1 read | 1 to read

Betta Fish and Backcountry, Nicholas Trieste's debut poetry collection takes on grief by looking it directly in the face. Isolated in the wilderness of America, these poems take on a life of self-doubt, realization and begin to ask many questions. What are we doing with our time? How are we supposed to grieve and communicate effectively? What's the world like outside of our bubble? Is it okay to feel completely and utterly hopeless? Deep, and brooding, the poems focus on topics most people would shy away from talking about openly.

Betta Fish and Backcountry | Nicholas Trieste

pick

Nicholas Trieste's Betta Fish and Backcountry is a poetic memoir that describes Nicholas' travels as he grieves the loss of his estranged father.
It is unlike any memoir or book of poetry I've ever read. The sequence of vivid poems tells his story of grief while showing his surroundings in the wilderness without overshadowing one or the other.
Poems such as "A Letter to my father (apology)" or "We ran" leave you wanting to know more.
