Some of which came to me in their entirety, which I dictated and then typed out, and some that I worked laboriously picking apart each word to make the perfect poem. They are eclectic and honest and not trying to be anything other than what they are and for that reason I'm proud of them, especially because the spirit in which they were written was very authentic. u003cbu003eu003ciu003eLana Del Reyu003c/iu003eu003c/bu003eu003cbru003e u003cbru003e u003cbu003eLana's breathtaking first booku003c/bu003e solidifies her further as 'the u003cbu003eessential writeru003c/bu003e of her times' (u003ciu003eThe Atlanticu003c/iu003e).
