About this listen

New York Times best seller

Grammy Award-nominated, platinum-selling musician Halsey is heralded as one of the most compelling voices of her generation. In I Would Leave Me If I Could., she reveals never-before-heard poetry of longing, love, and the nuances of bipolar disorder.

In this intimate audio performance of her debut collection, Halsey bares her soul. Bringing the same artistry found in her lyrics, Halsey's poems delve into the highs and lows of doomed relationships, family ties, sexuality, and mental illness. More hand grenades than confessions, these autobiographical poems explore and dismantle conventional notions of what it means to be a feminist in search of power.

Masterful as it is raw, passionate, and profound, I Would Leave Me If I Could. signals the arrival of an essential voice.

Featured Article: The Best Poetry Audiobooks to Listen to for National Poetry Month


It’s a common turn of phrase that poetry is meant to be heard. Tone, pauses, cadence, and vocal inflections all serve to further the emotional pull of modern and historical poetic masterpieces. In audio, poems can be heard and enjoyed just as the poet meant them to be. Taking into account not only the words themselves but the way they are spoken, our list provides a look at the power behind a poem, celebrating those works which have touched our souls.

Editor's Pick

A celebrated singer finds a new voice
What’s at the top of my to-listen-to list? This debut collection of poetry from the singer Halsey. For the first time, she brings her unique voice to a classic form of self-expression. Mining her personal experiences, relationships, and beliefs, Halsey reveals her interior life with powerful prose, and, even better, she narrates it. I can’t wait to hear more from this complex artist in a new medium. —[Kelley S., Audible Editor]

Amazing

Hearing her read her words herself, as opposed to the way you’d hear them in your mind reading them on print is a vastly different experience. I enjoyed both but the audiobook is definitely worth a listen.
