​Order Are You There ​now!
​

Are You There held in a hand.
Are You There is the most lyrically provoking debut I’ve ever read...Fain’s poems demand that our loneliness and alienation be understood and sung the same way our spirituality might be. That like our future, sometimes our present can only be imagined.
