PAPERBACK

two thousand and twenty years

two thousand
and twenty years
an anthology (2020)

After two thousand and twenty years of apathy, society faces retribution — not in the wake of a messianic God but instead in the hands of a merciless Fatherdom. Millions have died, whilst billions await their judgement.

Impassioned speech is all throughout regarded as illicit, unless rendered as mere erotic or romantic expression. Short of committing a punishable act, one writer took the task of chronicling accounts of various fateful events that transpired in AD 2020 for posterity’s sake. How many more are doing the same thing? The writer wondered.

The undertaking is not only contentious of course, but also necessary. A brutal regime is on the rise and, soon enough, all of literature shall undergo mandatory reformation in the hands of fandom.

Following the success of  for love and poetry in 2012, two thousand and twenty years offers another anthology of poetry by artist and writer Kristian Jeff Cortez Agustin.

PAPERBACK

for love and poetry
second edition
(2021)

Writers have time and again attempted to define love from a range of perspectives. But one thing remains true then and now: it is what we believe in.

This book explores the author’s personal and second-hand recollections of love, especially the grit, loss and musings that come with it. Just like the title, this poetry anthology claims nothing, except staying true to itself, love and poetry.

This second edition of Kristian Jeff Cortez Agustin’s  for love and poetry not only revisits the first edition which was published in 2012, but it also offers new compositions to complete the author’s body of work in the last twenty years.

First published in 2012 (with other contributing authors)
Second edition published in 2021 (single author, includes new compositions)

HARDBOUND

for love and poetry
special edition
(2012)

Many have attempted to define ‘love’ with concurring and dissenting perspectives. But one thing remains true: We believe it.

For love and poetry explores different, personal recollections and stories as each piece not only sheds light on the experience of love, but also the loss, musings, and ideas that come with it.

This debut collection originated from a single poem written by the author over a decade ago and has since then developed with the contribution of other literary artists. Just like the title, this book claims to be nothing except staying true to itself, love and poetry.
