A poetic celebration embracing our unfinished, imperfect, and authentic selves.The Never Was, the latest collection from best-selling poet Tyler Knott Gregson, marks a poignant return after nearly five years since his last book. Known for his typewritten poetry and heartfelt reflections, Gregson delves deeper than ever before, embracing vulnerability and authenticity. The title is inspired by a series of poetry fragments—bits and pieces that never found their way into complete poems. But after being diagnosed as Autistic in adulthood, Gregson discovered that these fragments held deeper meaning. They were more than just discarded lines; they were lifelines, offering solace during difficult days and capturing experiences that resonate deeply with anyone who identifies as neurodivergent. These raw, unpolished pieces appear alongside brand-new poems, creating a mosaic of thoughts and emotions that celebrate the power of the unfinished and the unrefined. This collection is an invitation for readers to embrace their own complexities, to find beauty in the pieces of themselves they once deemed unworthy, and to remember that every “never was” holds the potential to become something extraordinary.

Rafael Medoff examines what paved the way to the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel and its aftermath. The Road to October 7 examines what paved the way for the October 7, 2023, attack on Israel and its aftermath. Part 1, “The Present,” documents the Hamas invasion, the rise of Hamas, the education of Palestinian Arab children to hate and kill, the diplomatic decisions that helped enable the attack, and the propagation of anti-Israel and anti-Jewish libels. Part 2, “The Past,” analyzes how in both method and ideology, the Hamas assault echoed the pogroms in medieval Europe, Czarist Russia, and Ukraine; the Holocaust; and a century of Palestinian Arab terrorism. It also examines select American universities’ cultivation of friendly relations with Nazi Germany in the 1930s (the same universities that tolerated pro-Hamas protests after October 7) and October 7 as a turning point in the long history of antisemitism. Readers will emerge with important insights on the Hamas attack, antisemitic education in Palestinian Arab society, pro-Hamas groups on U.S. campuses, the responses of women’s and human rights organizations to mass sexual violence, misconceptions and fabrications about Israel’s conduct in the ensuing war, and why October 7 needs to be viewed as one segment of both the century-long Palestinian Arab war and the centuries-old international war against the Jewish people.
