Prelude to Light

In her debut collection, Venetta Octavia ventures inwards on a personal journey to discover the light within. She writes of how love and loss are often the same thing--a reflection that defines who we are--but also, how the stories we breathe life into are only the creations of our own mind. -- CELESTIAL BODIES is the study of poetry as body; of gleaning words from stars. The series aims to entice and encompass, to invite the reader to enter their orbit, to begin anew.
