Hold Tight and Reach Hard

By Darrell Kane

"If you've ever wished you could read an Edward Hopper painting, this is a book for you."

- Allison Larkin, Best Selling Author of The People We Keep and Home of The American Circus.

Hold Tight & Reach Hard: Poetry and Prose is a moving collection that explores the raw edges of life-where pain meets perseverance, where regret gives way to resilience, and where self-doubt is met with the quiet determination to push forward.

With an unfiltered, honest voice, Darrell Kane delivers poetry that is meant to be felt, not dissected. From the depths of struggle to the glimmers of hope, these poems navigate love, loss, addiction, mental health, and the everyday battles we fight within ourselves. Kane's words are a steady hand on the shoulder, a knowing voice that says, I've been there too.

For readers who appreciate the emotional depth of Rupi Kaur, the vulnerability of Sabrina Benaim, and the quiet strength of Mary Oliver, this book is an invitation to hold on, to reach for more, and to find beauty in the struggle.

Perfect for fans of:

Emotional, accessible poetry

Themes of resilience, self-discovery, and mental health

Poets like Rupi Kaur, Atticus, and Courtney Peppernell

A gift for anyone in need of encouragement and understanding
