OverviewA collection of antilipogrammatic constrained poetry and plays - univocalics wherein each uses only a single, specific vowel. Exploring diverse poetic forms and structure with deft observation and humour, Euphoria also confronts serious themes including social and global politics, mental and physical health, abuse, identity, brain training, and the human quest for wellbeing. Educational, engaging, and better than Wordle!
