The Overwhelming Expectation of Pleasantness is Brad Walsh's first book of poetry. Complemented with illustrations by the author and divided into color-coded sections ("Anguish," "Delight," "Settle," and "Death is Near"), a journey along the axis of grief is taken from heartbreak and despair, to the rediscovery of joy, to fulfillment and wisdom, and finally: contemplation of the other side.
