We worship crisp green bills, nuclear bombs, and bodies of eternal youth." - Egocentrism "A World of Encounters" is not your ordinary collection of poetry. It brings the dichotomy between encounters' strangeness and mundaneness to the foreground. We, as humans, do not only come across other people. Our encounters reach far beyond the ordinary to include things, animals, nature, and even take place in the realm of dreams.
