This is Fine by Peter Katsnelson is a bold and heartfelt debut from a remarkable young voice in Canadian poetry. At just 15 years old, the Calgary-based poet delivers a raw, introspective, and often humorous exploration of life’s complexities, blending poetry and prose with a maturity beyond his years. Katsnelson delves into themes of vulnerability, self-discovery, and the absurdities of modern existence, offering a voice that is both deeply personal and universally relatable.
 
From the awkwardness of middle school to the existential musings of adolescence, this collection captures the essence of what it means to navigate a world that is constantly changing—and often overwhelming. With wit, candor, and a touch of self-deprecation, Katsnelson’s work resonates with anyone who has ever felt out of place, questioned their purpose, or simply tried to make sense of the chaos around them. This is Fine is not just a book of poetry; it’s a mirror reflecting the beauty, pain, and humor of being human.
