Limerence

Beschreibung

In this captivating collection, Asha Walker explores the intense, often misunderstood experience of limerence- that all-consuming, obsessive state of infatuation that masquerades as love. Through vivid imagery and raw emotion, these poems chart the dizzying heights of euphoria, the aching lows of uncertainty, and the bittersweet journey of self-awareness. From the first electric touch to the final fading embers, "Limerence" resonates with anyone who has ever mistaken infatuation for lasting love. This volume serves as both a mirror and a balm for those navigating the turbulent waters of intense attraction, offering solace, understanding, and ultimately, a path toward genuine connection. Dive into these pages and rediscover the power of your own heart's journey, as you traverse the fine line between fantasy and reality, between limerence and love. Limerence published in 2024 has been praised for its unflinching examination of romantic obsession and the blurred lines between love and infatuation. Walker's unique voice blends traditional forms with experimental structures creating a reading experience that is both familiar and refreshingly new.
