EXCELLENT Based on 47 reviews Rowena2024-12-12Verified Where words meet eros I was truly moved, sometimes even rocked, by this book. Samuel points to the "disenchantment of our time", evokes the pain and confusion of it - and then points a pathway through that is so deeply human. Here is beauty in unexpected places; there is love that outlasts sorrow; everywhere is a single strand of hope that somehow endures. All of it pulsing with the brilliance and inexplicable wonder of life.There is both passion and craft here, and a clear drive to express and address a painful zeitgeist. This feels like a journey that has the potential to go far. The dreaming lost may yet find themselves. Jon Brooks2024-11-27Verified A wonderful piece of writing A kaleidoscope of writing talent. Just brilliant Claire Stibbon2024-08-09Verified A beautiful book I came across Samuel Hurley on Instagram and loved his performance of his poems. I bought the book, unsure whether it would capture my attention in the same way as listening to a poet read his own words.Oh my goodness I love this book. I have it by my bed and have taken to reading a few poems in the morning and at night. This morning I read three poems. I cried at each of them and smiled at 2 of the three.An Instagram-prompted purchase that has already enriched my life and how often can you say that? Emma2024-08-08Verified An absolute work of art I’ve never left an Amazon review befor but had to leave one for this. Hands down, the most beautiful book of poetry I own. Inspiring, moving, confronting and devistatingly beautiful. I don’t have the words to do it justice teally.I’m so greatful to have found Samuel’s work. Angels Are Real2024-07-31Verified The greatest existential romantic poet of our age Samuel Hurley is a timeless modern poet. Who seamlessly marries the beauty of classical romantic poetry with the ageless fragility of life, love, loss and grief whilst questioning why we are born into this World to discover beauty only to have to watch it decay and be lost to time. Yet he celebrates it all. Noting the importance of impermanence. How it makes the beauty all the more beautiful. The love more determined to find an Eternity in which to immortalise it. His words (both spoken and written) are more than words. They are magic. With the powers to heal hearts hardened by heartbreak, by unending grief, by loneliness... by taking the readers by both the hand and heart and saying that they are not alone in being lost in any of these human experiences. That he has been there. And perhaps some of Sam still is. And from there he reaches out and shines a light bright enough to reach from Earth out into the Heavens. Where Angels can listen and know what it is to be human. To be temporal and yet immortal. And to surrender to the beauty and magnificence of the mystery of it all.Samuel's poetry readings and performance can be seen on Instagram and Tik Tok.Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
