Deeply moving, incredibly emotional poetry. The author sets no boundaries with the reader; C. L. Adams lays her soul bare in this intense poetic sequel to her first published works. The author sets out her struggles with anxiety and depression, among other things, and readers will find C. L. Adams has put pen to paper and eloquently written out emotions that one struggles with putting into words.

Would hugely recommend this work.

Finally both volumes of CL Adams' incredible poetry are available in one book!

I was excited to learn that for the first time, the second volume, Barely Awake would be available in print, but this compendium is even better. The art included is now in full colour (where the images are not deliberately b&w) and the second volume has been extended with extra never before published poems.

These poems are raw, powerful and emotional and will touch you in a way that only poetry can. Highly relatable to those suffering particularly with depression and anxiety, there is an almost peace within the words.

If you need confirmation, just check out the reviews for Ouroboros Thoughts.

A literary masterpiece, and powerful exploration of the soul.
