Description

Calling a Wolf a Wolf is a deeply personal and unflinching collection of poems that explore the complexities of love, desire, and addiction. Through his own struggles with substance abuse, Kaveh Akbar reveals the power and beauty of our desires, even in their darkest forms.

The poems in this book are a reflection on the human experience, with all its attendant joys and frustrations. They are a testament to the enduring strength of desire, and the ways in which it can both sustain us and destroy us.

This is a refreshingly honest and often breathtaking addition to the canon of addiction literature, one that will carry readers with it on its journey of self-discovery and exploration.
