The Book of Adam is more than a story—it is a mirror. Through the scattered voices, across generations and places, a haunting pattern emerges: each grappling with love and loss, guilt and grace, survival and meaning. Their words feel different, yet eerily familiar. Because their struggles are ours. Is truth a matter of fact, or of perspective? Is it found in the courtroom, in the silence of a diary, in the grip of loss—or in the spaces between? These Adams are not just characters; they are reflections of what it means to be human. To be man. To be men.

This book of poetry is a collection of fourteen poems designed to change our thinking and the words we speak to ourselves and to others. It is my hope that this book of poetry speaks to you in a unique and compelling way.
