ARE WE EVEN TEAL is great work! Brice's pieces have a fantastical whimsiness that reminds me of Alice in Wonderland. The lyricism is giving Dr Seuss (in the best way). The inspirations for the work shine throughout the entire book. Some of the poems could be songs. The illustrations are also amazing. The art work combined with the written work make the poems jump out on the page. Brice lays out raw emotions while unabashedly uplifting his queerness. It was a great read. I enjoyed picking it up before I went to bed, and reading a few poems each time.
