My second poetry book comes out May 1st 2026! It's a narative poetry collection that follows a boy who becomes a monster and how it was the most beautiful thing to ever happen. Here's the synopsis:
This book of poetry is for everyone who's ever felt like they were made broken. "Non the Anti Man" loosely follows the story of a limerent monster called Non who searches for love in an increasingly hateful world, and aims to reveal that, often times, hate comes from within.
Out everywhere May 1st!
My debut poetry collection has finally been re-released! If you love bread, hate the Transformers, and need a breath of fresh air from all the angsty teenage poetry out there, this book is for you. Here’s the blurb:
EVERYTHING IS FINE.
Except for, you know, everything. But this collection of poetry explores the relationship between denial and vulnerability through an even balance of comedic and heartfelt poetry. Through 21 longform poems, multiple metaphors revolving around bread, a few made-up words, and a passionate hatred of the Transformers franchise, Peter Katsnelson paints the picture of someone learning how to let go of denial in this compelling mix of emotions, humour, and personal expression.
What People Are Saying (Amazon Reviews):
"This book astounded me."
"Peter Katsnelson has a razor-sharp wit, and he wields it masterfully across a variety of all-too-relatable subjects."
"A book for readers who balk at reading poetry, let alone actually buying a book of it."
"Makes me happy just looking at it."
More will come in due time. For now, I'll keep busy behind the scenes!
