The Loneliest Sweet Potato spoke to me in ways that no other poem ever has. Sabrina gets me on a level that I don't even get myself. I think if you get this book without knowing who she is or being familiar with her work, you're going to be a little disappointed. But on the whole, it's an entirely moving collection and encapsulates the sense of hopelessness and sense of aloneness without being a total bummer. It feels like a conversation with a friend, a connection that is massively rare in most contemporary works.

Miss Benaim's got a kind of raw sensibility that she express delightfully. You will smile, you might cry, but in the end what matters is that you'll be changed.

I love how Miss Benaim writes and talks about her struggles with depression and anxiety. I first got to know about her via youtube and so I knew most of the short stories in this book, but non the less it's utterly beautiful written. Every time I'm reading one of the texts I already know bc of youtube I have her voice in my mind, reading the text as she does on stage and it's overwhelming. I really recommend this author!

De los mejores poemas que he leído sobre enfermedades mentales, Sabrina tiene mucho talento y supo expresar lo que también pienso de la vida y un poco más. Muy recomendado

es un hermoso libro de poemas, obviamente no se compara con la experiencia de escuchar a Sabrina recitarlos pero es bonito poder apoyar el talento comprando su libro, my bien precio también.

Compré este libro porque vi el video de Sabrina en Button Poetry.No soy alguien que lee poesía regularmente pero esta colección me animó a buscar más.

I have read my fair share of nineteenth and twentieth century poetry. I love Emily Dickinson, Langston Hughes, Edgar Allan Poe and Maya Angelou. But with that being said, for whatever reason, it’s just extremely rare that I ever read modern poetry by current authors. Maybe I just don’t want to take the risk. But I made an exception this time after seeing an extraordinary video of the author performing her poem “Explaining My Depression to My Mother.” I immediately came to Amazon to buy the book, and I even paid extra for same-day delivery. Somehow in my rush, I even managed to accidentally order two copies.I would say that the tone of the book is kind of like a day in the life of a twenty-something millennial. She laments lost loves, the unreliability of her father, and the would-be helpful codependence of her mother.I don’t know enough about the author to have any sense of how much of the book is autobiographical and how much of it is fiction, but it felt like there was a ring of personal truth in Benaim’s writing. I could personally relate to many of the themes in the book, especially those related to body issues and eating/weight, as well as anxiety issues. Benaim tackles other difficult topics such as the divorce of her parents and, of course, depression.One of the first things you might notice is the lack of capitalization and frequent lack of any punctuation whatever. I’m a bit of a grammar stickler, so I wasn’t sure how that was going to work for me, but soon enough I completely forgot about it.There were a few lines in particular that stood out to me as particularly shattering.From nature versus nurture:…when my father tells me i am beautiful,i always hope it’s because i remind him of my mother.From follow up a prayer / a spell:when i look in the mirror i see a reflectionof the gifts i withhold from myself.Final say: 5/5 stars, and I didn’t even have to think about it. I’m a fan. I’m sure I’ll come back to it many times. The content is good and the poetry itself is sharp. I really enjoyed living in her world for an hour or two, and I’ll buy her next book. And one final thing: I feel like I have to say kudos to whoever made that cover. It’s perfect.

Sabrina Benaim es una de las mejores poetas contemporáneas y no podéis perderos este libro, que es una auténtica maravilla. Al mismo tiempo es doloroso por lo depresivo y esperanzador. Algunos poemas son tan certeros que es imposible no sentirse identificado.
