Blind Huber by Nick Flynn

Blind Huber is a short collection of poems about bees. This book is completely different from anything I've ever read by Flynn, I could say it feels calmer, almost quiet. It's as if Flynn has finally found a safe zone where he could allow his mind to wander, which is kind of ironic considering the content is about living as bees do. Being born and bred for a single purpose. Almost never leaving hive except when some greater force smashes it open to eat you. Maybe even dying in a comb and being covered in the sweet nectar you so bravely defend, forever to hang suspended, preserved. The food for you and your millions of sisters, brothers, Queen. I really enjoyed this collection, as I have everything I've read by Flynn, despite the insane negative feedback this book received online. Sometimes the users should just loosen up and enjoy the words instead of looking for a meaning that's not between them. For more information on Blind Huber or Nick Flynn , please visi
