Pyre House
Lev St. Valentine’s debut poetry collection, Pyre House, is a poignant, pleading journey through a home where faith is dragged through the dirt, guilt burns like incense, and every door leads back inside. It holds grief up with bloody hands and speaks with visceral urgency. Pyre House doesn’t offer answers– it simply shows us what remains after everything burns away.
Pyre House is a full-length collection featuring over thirty works, available in perfect-bound paperback.
