David Larbi is a writer, creator and poet from London. Through his experimentation with diverse platforms and forms of expression, he has built an online community based on introspection and emotional connection. He has a deep love for words, and wants anyone who comes across his work to leave feeling better for it.
He joins us this March to celebrate his latest book, The World is Beautiful, Still.
What I didn't know at first, when I was in the deepest darkness, was how many pinholes of light would come.'
The world is imperfect. Loneliness, grief, pain, heartbreak: our troubles can threaten to overwhelm us in a world that seems more disconnected, disillusioned and noisier than ever.
Sunday Times bestselling poet David Larbi knows this firsthand. And yet, as he reminds us with his poetry, the world - and people - are beautiful, still. Humanity endures, radiant and full of vibrant hope. In 100 poems and reflections, this book will show you how to see it, in both the marvellous and the mundane, and find the wonder in the life you're living.
