It's interesting, to read a book of poetry. It's such a different experience than a regular book of fiction. The path that you'll take as a reader is more unpredictable. The path that the author takes, less presumable. The whole thing could make it or break it for you in one stanza.This book was beautiful. It's poem after poem, each one weaving together a fabulous life story. A collection of musical notes composing a song about a girl looking for her home. A home between two countries, between lovers, between parents, between her own inward voices.
It read like the fluid motion of a sigh. Breathe in, breathe out.
She is a writer who knows her words, knows where to find them, knows how to share them back with her readers. She puts them together on the page like a puzzle. First the sky, then the ground.
