Bøker av Isaac Amend

"Lost in the Desert" is Isaac's second poetry collection. Nearly 100 pages long, it explores poems related to nature, relationships, love, heartbreak, and disease. "Lost in the Desert" also incorporates some shorter pieces of prose that explore the author's life, including time spent in foreign countries, feelings of unsafety around being trans, and experiences he's had in Washington DC. Indeed, the author wants to dedicate "Lost in the Desert" to his hometown of DC, where thousands of artists are struggling to make careers every single day. DC as a city needs to make sure that the arts continue to thrive, be it in ballet studios, art galleries in Dupont, or spoken poetry readings at Busboys and Poets. The capital city is alive with beautiful dance, speeches, paintings, and song, and it needs to stay that way.

"e;When The Sky Was a Canvas to Make Fun Of"e; is a poetry collection that meditates on love, lust, war, conflict, and all of the other amazing and awful things that humans go through. For the most part, the book openly rejects poetry that centers on nature and other occurrences not related to human emotion and relationships. Geographically, the book is mostly set along the eastern seaboard, in the Pacific Northwest, and in Israel and Jordan.
