Retracing the Erased is a collection of poems and personal artwork done by Bryce Stoskopf. This book is an attempt at trying to strip down the meaning of human emotion with sharp themes ranging from warm contentment to unfathomable heartache and madness. These images and words paint a picture of the desperation behind questions that we have not thought of to ask ourselves as a whole being yet. What makes us love? What makes us hurt? What makes us alone? What makes us wanted? Such yearning for answers to these questions are what makes the foundation of our conscious reality so endless and yet so seducing. "Retracing the Erased" attempts to lube that process of finding those answers.
