Description
'A matchless compound of hug, tonic and kiss' Stephen Fry on William Sieghart's bestselling Poetry Pharmacy
The Poetry Pharmacy is one of the bestselling (and most giftable) poetry anthologies of recent decades. Now, after huge demand for more prescriptions from readers and 'patients' alike, William Sieghart is back. This time, tried-and-true classics from his in-person pharmacies are joined by readers' favourite poems and the new conditions most requested by the public - all accompanied by his trademark meditations (warm, witty and understanding, with just a twist of the challenging) on the spiritual ailments he seeks to cure.
From ageing bodies and existential crises to long-distance relationships and embracing your slovenliness, The Poetry Pharmacy Returns caters to all-new conditions while drilling further down into the universals: this time, the challenges of family life, and of living as a person among others, receive a much closer look. Perfect for the treasured friends, barely tolerated siblings, beloved aunts and revered grandparents in your life.

I was lucky enough to be sent a copy of the poetry pharmacy before it’s published date on my iPad kindle & wow, I am so glad that I read this!
As a poetry writer myself, I absolutely loved this book and viewing all the different poems produced through the years, all about a particular passionate topic of mine- mental health. William Sieghart uses poetry as a form of healing, for all types of people around the world. There is a poem for every form of emotion or situation that life has sprung upon us. I could relate to near enough every single poem I read, others I favoured more than others, but I came away feeling empowered, inspired & amazed at what these words made me feel. As someone who suffers from anxiety & has experienced mental health struggles, There is certainly a poem for everyone, no matter where you are in life!
I thoroughly recommend to anyone who may be struggling currently or previously. This is absolutely a brilliant form of healing your soul, allowing your thoughts to drift & acknowledging your feelings.
This is a definite ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me!
