A Life Alive delves into themes of self-discovery and life exploration, with a positive tone and contemporary perspective. The verses dance with the melodies of nature's symphony, crafting vibrant landscapes, profound reflections, and existential questions. As you turn the pages, allow yourself to be drawn into a voyage that kindles the flames of wonder and wander through the beauty found within oneself, the world, and the art of poetry.
Julia Clijsen's debut collection reflects her experiences, discoveries and developments during her travels and in her young adulthood. Her poems are crafted to be accessible and uplifting, and she consciously avoids melancholic and romantic themes. Intending to introduce a younger generation to the world of poetry, these words aim to bridge the gap in this often less explored realm. As she combines her earlier and recent works, her message shines through, inspiring readers to embrace the grace of existence and live a life alive.
