Make Believe: Poems
An exquisite poetry collection from the creator of The Daily Victorian that celebrates the hidden versions of ourselves, unveiling the healing power of nostalgia, imagination, and hope
They say you can’t make yourself believe in things, and they might be right. But you can take a walk with optimism. You can hear her out when she tells you the universe is conspiring in your favor. You can keep your eyes peeled for signs that she’s right.
Somewhere in the future, the next version of you is waiting. Are you ready to stop hiding and go seek them? Viral poet Victoria Hutchins’s first book, Make Believe, is a reclamation of childlike wonder and an invitation to stop hiding from your joy. These poems pave a path of reconnection to our bodies, our past, our wanting, and our wonder—ultimately asking, how do you find hope in a world full of pain?
Make Believe is for anyone who is embarrassed about how long they've been hiding from themselves, who is one bad day away from thinking the world is a terrible place, whose body feels like an enemy to their soul, or who is struggling to stick around. Hutchins challenges readers to reimagine struggles as superpowers and uses the power of confession and nostalgia to create a world of hope. Make Believe will inspire readers to go out looking, heart in hand, for joy, purpose, and healing.
With her trademark sensory and evocative language throughout, this book contains Hutchins's viral spoken-word pieces with tons of never-shared-before writing. Ultimately pointing readers towards transformation, Hutchins asks us to dig deep and discover, what would happen if you allowed yourself to believe again—in dreams and miracles, but mostly, in yourself?
