Harmony

In this collection of all new poems, Whitney Hanson explores the progression of a life through the lens of music. We each begin with a simple note, but as life progresses, we're led to the next note, and the next - all of which combine to form the melody of a song and the cadence of a life. As life becomes more complicated and complex, we find that loss, grief, and heartache can muffle our music, making the world go silent. But as Whitney's poems show, all of these rests and pauses in the music are part of the magnificent composition of life. Broken into four sections - melody, rest, crescendo, and harmony - the poems in Harmony explore childhood, friendship, grief, acceptance, and peace. The result is a collection that emphasises the beauty of living a life at peace with all its musical variations.

"Poet and TikTok sensation Whitney Hanson has penned Harmony, which explores all the complexities that life offers, highlighting her own vulnerability and prompting the same from her audience. Hanson crafts poems about grief, comparing the processes of human emotion to those of writing a song. Harmony illustrates Hanson’s efforts to marry the person she was before she lost someone she deeply loved with the person she became after they passed. To put it simply, Hanson indeed makes music with her poetry."
