The Human Experience is a collection of poems capturing just that, covering subjects as wide-ranging as the simple joys of a cup of coffee to the fear of war, pandemics, and climate change. It reflects our contemporary existence and perspectives, juggling the ups and downs of daily lives with the existential questions hanging over humanity's shoulders.

Tackling with humour the trials and tribulations of dating, conversing with the animals, and a love of swimming pools, to sensitive explorations of mental health and the issues we face in the modern world, Kelly Higgins writes with an unpretentious honesty and openness. She brings new light to the ordinary things in life.
