NYC Empty Streets Lead To Release Poet's Story Of Hope And Transformation

Thursday, April 8, 2021, an advertising copywriter put out the chilling description of New York City in her second collection of poetry. "It was as if there was no difference between clouds, building shadows, and asphalt. Everything was one––blanketed in the ashy stillness of silence."

Natalie Nascenzi's second book narrates hope and serendipity before and during the city-wide shutdown:

"Not a single soul in sight on silent city streets.
My silent footsteps seek the people, locked inside for weeks.
Never thought I'd see the day that New York City sleeps."

As in, readers experience the city front and center to the triumph, terror, and transformation in which the reader guide through the poet's personal experiences as he describes the circumstance. "The entire book is about never giving up. It's about continuing to follow your passion despite what reality or your mentality decides to throw your way and having hope, even when everything feels lost," Nascenzi put out.

UP magazine describes the theme in this collection: "hope is part and parcel of the human condition, especially in times like these when we wish the chaos would stop."

With Amazon Review rate five-stars as describe: "The eponymous "unrest" refers to our shared pandemic uncertainty as we felt the world unraveling in the eerily quiet and empty streets of a major city."

A personal mission to promote hope and inspiration in Natalie put in her own words, "I want people to know that you can do anything no matter who you are or what you go through. You truly are capable of anything. You have to be strong enough to not give up on yourself."
