Bücher von Dre Hill

No can see the world that exists inside one's head. Sometimes you might wish you could close your eyes and never wake, drifting off peacefully into an eternal slumber. (No) I am (not) okay is Dre Hill's exploration into this hidden inner world and what happens within. This chapbook centers its dialogue on suicide and ideations, mental health, along with commentary on religion, race, and gender, and how these structures further cloud the waters of the mind. Here, Hill reckons with the weight of the war waged in one's own mind. (No) I am (not) okay is raw, unashamed, and unafraid, willing to say things that many think but feel they could never articulate.

A crossroads is a series of intersecting paths, each with the potential to take a traveler to a new destination. Whether the destination is known or unknown, the journey becomes one that tests the wit, will, and working knowledge of the traveler along the way. This collection, Crossroads, is Dre Hill's journey of discovery, identity, and sense of self. Dre is formed and remade. Lost and then found. A wayward soul in search of both the past and the future. Much like this collection, Dre's journey is both linear and non, simultaneously unfolding sequentially and at the same time, much like the ways in which we experience and compartmentalize things in real time. The work is reflective, speaking to the progression of his journey up until now, navigating his confusion, losses, doubts, anxieties, and more. The hope is that it similarly speaks to your inner journeyman, or woman, and that you will meet Dre where the roads cross.
