I don't read a lot of poetry. I think it's nice. ( ) I wish this was what filled the shelves of high school libraries and the hands of students just getting their first introduction to poetry, instead of Rupi Kaur. Imagine similar subject matter to Rupi, but written in actual, good-quality verse. Written in an Emily Bronte-esque style, with subject matter and imagery similar to Melanie Martinez. Young love gone wrong told with gallows humour and childhood allusions. A really charming collection from a very promising poet. I look forward to reading more! Fall 2020 (November); I have a deep abiding love for Leav and I'm starting my way through the hardcover collection of hers I've been slowly collecting in my house. I love just how much punch she can pack into 3-4 lines, whether it's anger or hurt or fear or love. I find my breath caught everywhere where it comes to her, and I'm really going to enjoy reading all of her pieces in linear order this go. I have read somewhere that poetry can only be called beautiful only if a connection exists between the author and the reader. While others may find this book to be quite moving and beautiful, I couldn’t quite agree. I guess because I don’t have that connection. The collection of poems in this book are nice but I don’t relate to them. Maybe some other time, I may be able to reread this book again and find that special connection with the author. PS. I like the “Memories” way better that this book.
Beautifully illustrated and thoughtfully conceived, Love and Misadventure will take you on a rollercoaster ride through an ill-fated love affairfrom the initial butterflies through the soaring heights to the devastating plunge. And, in the end, the message is one of hope. The journey from love to heartbreak to finding love again is personal yet universal. Lang Leav's evocative poetry speaks to the soul of anyone who is on this journey. Leav has an unnerving ability to see inside the hearts and minds of her readers. Her talent for translating complex emotions with astonishing simplicity has won her a cult following of devoted fans from all over the world. Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
