Book description
The new collection from RBC/PEN Canada New Voices Award winner Mikko Harvey. Mikko Harvey's new collection invites readers into a world that is and is not the world we know. In poems at once surreal, satiric, and tender, we encounter a cast of surprising non-human characters -- the bear who sells herbal remedies, the politically influential lizard, the mean butterfly -- yet at the core of this book is Harvey's impulse to confront the challenges of human intimacy. Let the World Have You is a vibrant report on the ways in which we are delightfully, awkwardly, heartbreakingly entangled: with each other, with the environment we inhabit, and with the psychological environments that inhabit us.

This app has reignited my love for literature in the most delightful way. Incredible character voices! Each person felt distinct without being over-the-top. The emotional scenes gave me chills with how well they were delivered. Decent audiobook but I think I would have enjoyed reading it more. Some of the more subtle humor didn't quite land in the audio format.
