What’s happening?
Young poet Atticus, well known as an Instagram sensation and for his popularity among celebrities, will be at Chapters at Metropolis at Metrotown to read from his first book Love Her Wild, released on July 11.
Who is this Atticus?
Well, that’s quite the loaded question. The poet is something of a mystery. While immensely popular on social media, he’s either seen wearing a mask or covering his face. (In fact, I’m not sure if there are any photos of his face available.)
Teen Vogue dubbed him the number 1 poet to follow, and he’s recently joined forces with Emma Roberts for a poetry contest run by Roberts’ book club Belltrist.
So, what’s this new book about?
Everything and anything.
“In Love Her Wild, Atticus captures what is both raw and relatable about the smallest and the grandest moments in life,” notes a press release.
“With honesty, poignancy and romantic flare, Atticus distills the most exhilarating highs and the heartbreaking lows of life and love into a few short lines, ensuring that his words will become etched in your mind — and will awaken your sense of adventure.”
Sounds intriguing, no?
OK, give me the deets.
The reading starts at 7 p.m. and will be followed by a book signing. It’s all happening at Chapters Metrotown, 4700 Kingsway.
