Kharla Brillo's debut book of poetry Other Than Sadness is a collection of raw and poignant poems taking on the deep subtleties of losing, finding, and loving oneself. Selected from her early years of writing, her words will take you to underground pathways and doors wrapped in cobwebs and aching. Where people come in knocking, falling and breaking things. Where you no longer think of your darkness as different from your light, but as a part and a whole of you that was only asking for a way out.
