i thought if i ate the world i would finally be full i would never be hungry again In this debut poetry collection, Marina''s talent for powerful, evocative song lyrics finds a new outlet as her words weave stories of resilience and self-discovery. Each poem resonates with the same creative melodies and emotional depth that have made her an artistic sensation. Hailed by The New York Times for ''redefining songs about coming of age, and the aftermath, with bluntness and crafty intelligence,'' Marina delves even further into teenage trauma, youth, and the highs and lows of relationships in these profound, autobiographical poems. Eat the World compiles Marina''s original poems and collaborative illustrations to form a collection that transcends the boundaries of music and literature. Her poetry invites readers to explore the human experience through her perspective, offering a profound glimpse into the artist''s soul and the universal emotions that connect us all.
