Description
Neil Hilborn’s highly anticipated second collection of poems, The Future, invites readers to find comfort in hard nights and better days. Filled with nostalgia, love, heartbreak, and the author’s signature wry examinations of mental health, this book helps explain what lives inside us, what we struggle to define. Written on the road over two years of touring, The Future is rugged, genuine, and relatable. Grabbing attention like gravity, Hilborn reminds readers that no matter how far away we get, we eventually all drift back together. These poems are fireworks for the numb. In the author’s own words, The Future is a blue sky and a full tank of gas, and in it, we are alive.

Absolutely beautiful writing. The poems slither and seethe with wit and a certain melancholic charm. Hilborn is like Billy Collins for redditors.

Disclaimer: I received this book from the publisher through netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
I starting watching Neil's slam poetry on YouTube, which is something I love doing, but when I found out that there were physical collections of them, I wanted to give that a try too. There's something deeply relatable in how he puts words together, and talks about his mental illness struggles.
Overall - I'd highly recommend this, and his other poetry collection, but also I'd recommend to check out him reading them live. Mostly because he's so good at delivering it, his performance is amazing.
