The Virtue of Patience Withers Itself: A Collection Poems

The enormity of human emotions is difficult to put into words. In Alistair Woo's debut poetry collection, The Virtue of Patience Withers Itself, the complexities of our relationships with others, with the passage of time, and with ourselves are explored and made sense of, and the tender simplicity of life is brought to the surface. In tandem with the hopeful bliss of life, the dark side of mental health comes forward in Woo's uniquely conversational voice, shedding light on topics often left ignored. In The Virtue of Patience Withers Itself, these hard topics are not brushed aside; they are brought to the center of the conversation. For those seeking solace and community in their own hard times or for those who have never heard words put to their feelings.
