We Are Gonna Get Out Of Here by Alice LeFae is poetic
storytelling at its most vulnerable. To read the poems individually is to feel a brief sense of raw emotion, but when read as a collection, Alice manages to draw the reader into an honest conversation about life, love, obsession, and hope. The scattered illustrations, also created by the author, help tell the story and bring a bit of whimsy into what could be a very dark journey. Although her collection is certainly not short of despair (and sometimes even desperation), there remains a glimmer of hope throughout. Alice does not shy away from reality, but faces it head-on and brings the reader along for the ride. Read the book from cover to cover, or turn to a random page and enjoy a snippet at a time, or do both. It's the real thing, and it leaves you with the desire for the next chapter, the next story, or at the very least, the next poem."
