This Is Why I Never Left: The Playlist

This playlist is a collection of songs I listened to while writing the book / while I lived in Santa Cruz. It was a kind of moodboard I used while deciding what themes and concepts I wanted to talk about in the book.

I also named a lot of poems after songs that reminded me of the events I was writing about, or songs that matched the themes of the poems. They help provide more context for the poems and makes the book more immersive! I included visuals and words, but now you can also listen to what this time period felt like for me as well!
