"And now the ghosts and the dust settle in on my heart and I have no children, no apple trees, or sunshine. Only tears."

My Mentor, Death is a collection of over 40 of Leslie D. Soule's best poems, meditating on modernity, loss, and more. With deft language and cutting wit, Soule's poetry illuminates the twisted landscape of the 21st century, creating a tableau of lost loves, depersonalization, and that specter that comes for all of us: death.

My Mentor, Death includes several poems published by Terror House Magazine in 2018 and 2019.
