Remnants of Light: A Novel by Mike Yost

Before I was walking the streets of Denver with my camera, I sat inside my apartment (and a few bars) drafting a novel in grad school while studying existentialism.

It’s a narrative of a guy falling headfirst into an existential crisis, mostly drinking his way through self-hatred, the need for connection, and the weight of loneliness as the days are stacked on each other in piles like old photographs curling at the edges, soon to fade and slip silently into oblivion.

Lunatic Looming

A far-flung star falling beneath the horizon / Clouds gathering to witness this striking yet silent end / As night crawls forth and consumes the fleeting light / Dusting the sky with billions of distant stars blinking in the dark

My photography and photobooks will be featured at @blackskybrewery this Saturday to raise funds for the MS Society! Come by from 2pm-7pm, check out my photography and the work of other Denver artists, then grab a beer and some pizza and bang your heads to some tasty metal tunes!
