Invoking the enigmatic threads of the human imagination, this debut collection highlights self-discovery, grounded in love and loss, sexuality, nature, spirituality, and mortality.
Divided into three parts, Waiflike tells the tumultuous dynamics of a dysfunctional family, the elements of a zealous young painter, and the decline of an ethereal poet.
Each part is an intimate reflection of semiautobiographical events told from different perspectives: a child eager to be loved, a voiceless artist, a faithless addict, and a bulimic man bound by an internal darkness-all of whom share the same soul.
