Mouthful of Forevers

Titled after the poem that burned up on Tumblr and has inspired wedding vows, paintings, songs, YouTube videos, and even tattoos among its fans, Mouthful of Forevers brings the first substantial collection of this gifted young poet's work to the public. Clementine von Radics writes of love, loss, and the uncertainties and beauties of life with a ravishing poetic voice and piercing bravura that speak directly not only to the sensibility of her generation, but to anyone who has ever been young.

not as emotional as i initially thought, and yet still feels touching and sentimental. a few cliché here and there but i love it nonetheless. that one poem about a lion in your living room is... neat. i understand why the poem inspired a wedding vow. you can feel the love when you read it.

Let me just start this review by saying that I know that poetry is subjective, and that it could be expressed in numerous ways. It's just a matter of preference of which way you'd like it to be expressed.

There were some nice bits of verses in there. Some of them admittedly struck something within me, but it was only fleeting. Most of the poetry just seemed too mundane, just expressed in flowery words. Perhaps it just isn't the kind of poetry for me. It is too much like beat poetry, and none of the smorgasbord of irony, atmosphere and metaphors that I yearn to read. It really saddens me to say that I wasn't blown away. Rhyme unintended.

“Our love came unannounced in the middle of the night.
Our love came when we’d given up on asking love to come. I think
that has to be part of its miracle.”

Pranav Mutatkar

Mouthful of forevers is by far the best one. The others are still fledging it seems.

Several poems I really liked, but many that I thought were mediocre. I'm interested in reading In a Dream You Saw a Way to Survive to see how this poet's work has evolved.

Read for the O.W.L.s Magical Readathon 2020.
