After the introspective debut of A Soliloquy of Intent, Ryan Patrick Carasco returns with a second, more intimate offering-The Monsoon Brew.
In this haunting and unflinching collection, Carasco distills the storms of the human experience into verse that is as raw as it is resonant. Moving through love and loss, grief and the quiet ache of growing up, each poem reads like a memory preserved in rainwater-fragile, vivid, and impossible to ignore.
The Monsoon Brew is a deeply personal excavation of self. It captures the shifting landscapes of a Filipino-Canadian writer shaped by two homelands. From the lush, soulful terrains of the Philippines to the vast, contemplative spaces of Canada, Carasco's voice bridges cultures with honesty and reverence.
This is his most personal work to date-a testament to where he has been, who he has loved, and what he continues to carry forward. For anyone who has ever weathered a storm and searched for meaning in its aftermath, The Monsoon Brew offers both shelter and song.
