Poemsia: A Novel

Verity Wolf writes poems she never intends anyone else to read, and then the internet finds them. Lang Leav moves from verse into fiction while keeping the directness her poetry collections are known for. The novel follows a teenager pulled into sudden visibility, weighing friendship, first love and creative honesty against steady pressure to keep performing for an audience that grows faster than she does. Why it holds up: • A coming-of-age story built around a young poet • Online fame examined from the inside rather than at a distance • Fiction from a writer known for bestselling poetry collections • Themes of authenticity, first love and self-belief Aimed at teenage readers and at adults who follow contemporary coming-of-age fiction, available through Boipoka.
