In Dashiell Grey's debut publication, "The Diary Young," readers are invited into a world where the timeless elegance of classical poetry style and substance meets the vibrant pulse of the modern age.

These poems, crafted by high school junior Dashiell Grey between the autumn of 2022 and the summer of 2023, fearlessly explore the profound landscapes of love, death, nature, life, faith, disbelief, philosophy, truth, religion, protest, and above all— irresolution.

Grey aptly writes, "There is no answer, for the question should suffice. There is no destination, no beginning, no end. These poems exist beyond resolution. These poems are not bookends; they are the pages in between."

"The Diary Young" beautifully intertwines ageless themes and youthful insight with the enduring charm of classic poetry. Immerse yourself on a journey through the sentimental landscapes of both heart and intellect.

“But I won’t indulge until much later;
The much later that is old age,
And I will be prepared to state:
I’d be willing to do it all over again.”
- “A Poem to a Subsequent Man”
