Launching ‘4:16 AM’

Rediscovering the Power of Poetry
Growing up in the 1970s, my exposure to poetry was limited to the likes of Shakespeare’s sonnets and ‘The Cremation of Sam McGee.’ It wasn’t until encountering Ava’s work that I truly appreciated the power and beauty of poetry. Ava’s unique ability to weave together vivid imagery, raw emotion, and astute observations of a chaotic world makes her work resonate with readers from all walks of life.
Ava Nori’s ‘4:16 AM’ is more than just a collection of well-crafted poems; it is an invitation to explore our own emotions and experiences through her fearless and evocative words. At Tagona Press, we are honored to bring this exceptional debut to the world, confident that Ava’s work will inspire and captivate readers for years to come.
