Adams states that: "this is the book of verse where I wake up, where I see myself responding to a world with as much light and as much grace as whatever disappointment I felt. This is where I fell back in love with everything--this is my best work yet."[1] (Preorders of Hello Sunshine were shipped on 18 August 2009 by publisher Akashic Books).

Reviews

Gawker said Adams' prose is like "shiny gold covered shit".[2] Indy Week said "the poems are petulant, myopic and petty".[3]

gollark: > Māori distinguishes between long and short vowels; modern written texts usually mark the long vowels with a macron.IT SPREADS.
gollark: Statistically, you OBVIOUSLY can.
gollark: > The 2013 New Zealand census reported that about 149,000 people, or 3.7% of the New Zealand population, could hold a conversation in Māori about everyday things.[2][6] As of 2015, 55% of Māori adults reported some knowledge of the language; of these, 64% use Māori at home and around 50,000 people can speak the language "very well" or "well".[1]
gollark: Similarly to how I fluently speak Latin, French and Old English.
gollark: As you live in New Zealand, you speak ALL languages vaguely associated with it, yes?
