Heidi Priebe's first poetry collection, "The First New Universe," offers an incredibly raw and deeply personal look at the poet's experiences with first love, first loss and the redemption that can be found inside of each. 

Exploring themes of infatuation and disillusionment, betrayal and forgiveness, regret and acceptance and our endless potential for rebirth, Priebe's work shamelessly exposes what it means to be young and in love—at its ugliest and most heartbreaking, as well as at its bravest and most healing.
