Depression and other Magic Tricks
Author: Sabrina Benaim
Genre: Poetry
Published August 2017
Book description (from Good Reads): Depression & Other Magic Tricks explores themes of mental health, love, and family. It is a documentation of struggle and triumph, a celebration of daily life and of living. Benaim's wit, empathy, and gift for language produce a work of endless wonder.
Thoughts:
First off, I was unable to concentrate on the messages of the poems by one super big flaw in my opinion.
The format was extremely annoying and hard to get into.
#2 there were some poems such as Explaining depression to my mother hat were very good, there were plenty of others that I could simply not care about.
There are a lot of mentions of depression, loneliness, not being in a relationship, issues with fathers which were somewhat ok but still nothing that got my attention all that much.
Overall I did not like this book may be the style is not my thing or I could not connect to the topics as others have and that dampened my enjoyment of the book.
