Victoria Cocolaras' debut collection of poems brings an introspective look into the nuances of contemporary relationships and their contribution to the development of one's identity. Through the introduction of themes such as love, loss, and regret, Cocolaras explores the necessity of letting go of the past in order to discover one's self. Exhaling Helium is more than a modern take on social connections; it is a crucial reminder of something we all must do every once in a while to ease us back down to earth.
