Poet Releases Second Poetry Collection Centered Around The ‘Art of Job Hunting’

Anastasia Fenald is no stranger to the job hunt. With a B.A. in Global Studies and an M.A. in Globalization and Development respectfully, she knows the anguish, torture, and frustration of the endless cycle of applications, assessments, job interviews, and rejection emails which led her to write her second poetry collection about just that. With stout observations and blunt truths sharper than a 24k ballpoint pen across company letterhead, Fenald’s new collection is sure to showcase capitalism for what it is: a corporate game of russian roulette while still appealing to the unemployed and corporate game players alike. The collection releases everywhere in paperback, ebook, and audiobook on November 28, 2023 from Riot of Roses Publishing.

About The Book: Capitalism got you down? Me too.THE ART of JOB HUNTING is Anastasia Helena Fenald’s second poetry collection, a classic one-two punch of humorous satire and blunt truth. While taking inspiration from job applications, skill assessments, and interview questions, each poem delivers wit and sarcasm sprinkled with plenty of uncomfortable (read: honest) vulnerability. THE ART of JOB HUNTING is for anyone living paycheck to paycheck, plotting to cannibalize the rich, and still hopeful enough to think they have a chance against nepo babies.
