Tekst achterflap

In these pages, mustaches become milestones, doors suffer existential crises, tigers fall in love, and even a stray hair in a bowl of soup can unfold into something strangely triumphant.
Melsen writes with equal affection for the ridiculous and the devastating, moving seamlessly between playful imagination and intimate confession. The result is a collection that is funny, strange, vulnerable, and unmistakably human.
These poems invite readers to laugh, reflect, and sometimes cry… though perhaps not because of the onion.
