About this Event
Huxley & Hiro is thrilled to host poet Hannah Rosenberg for a conversation about her debut poetry collection, Same. Moderated by L.J. Sysko, it promises to be an evening of insight and inspiration!
Book Description:
The debut collection from beloved Instagram poet @hannahrowrites, Same is a celebration of one thing we all have in common: a desire to be seen and understood. With her artful blend of intuitive and wise insights, Hannah’s observations resonate with readers across multiple life stages―girlhood, marriage, motherhood and beyond. Centering friendship and connection, her poems are filled with the kind of recognizable, intimate details described by a relatable, honest voice that make readers nod along and instantly want to share with someone they love.
In a world that often aims to make women feel smaller, Same offers an unparalleled feeling of visibility and validation, and a reminder that not only are we not alone, but we’re also all in this together.
