In Social Prison, poet Samuel Ludke rips the mask off modern life, exposing the quiet suffocation beneath our polished profiles and curated personas. With raw intensity and haunting clarity, this collection explores the invisible chains of expectation, conformity, and isolation in an age of constant connection.
Each poem is a key turned in a lock-a desperate cry, a whispered rebellion, a truth too long buried. Ludke doesn't just ask what it means to be free-he dares to show us what it costs.
