Publisher's Synopsis
Sylvia Alls' debut poetry collection, A Little Bit of Truth; Because the Lies Didn't Hurt Enough, invites readers on an intimate exploration of the human experience through raw emotion, vivid imagery, and heartfelt honesty.
This captivating anthology delves into themes of love, identity, pain, resilience, and self-discovery, reflecting the complexities of life's most profound moments. Alls masterfully captures the duality of love-its joy and its heartbreak-while embracing the vulnerability that fosters growth. Her work also examines identity, encouraging readers to reflect on self-perception and the journey of authenticity. Pain, though isolating at times, is reimagined as a space for connection and healing in her evocative verses. Resilience emerges as the collection's heartbeat, celebrating the indomitable human spirit and the beauty of rising after adversity. Deeply personal yet universally resonant, Alls' poetry challenges readers to feel deeply, reflect inwardly, and find solace in the shared tapestry of the human condition.
