To the Stars Through Adversity

By Sydney Alyk Langlois

In a collection of short stories and poetry, Sydney has put together a range of works that all aim to explore one thing: the confusion that comes with being alive in a divided world. Covering topics ranging from death, abuse, to gender and sexual identity, Sydney uses mythology in an attempt to reconcile what it's like to live with mental illness in a world that so desperately clings to the legacy of those that came before. From slam poetry to conversations with figures like Icarus, Achilles, and Frey, Sydney has compiled over twenty works that are gentle in nature, simply because he believes that the world could use more gentle stories.
