Heartsick, yet hopeful poetry by an award-winning author whose style she has defined as "distinctively confessional." Her intimate prose takes you through a range of emotions, and introduces readers to a myriad of poetic forms, from delicate and romantic Shakespearean sonnets to bawdy and clever limericks. The author's meaning is ripe with raw metaphors of longing and loss, written with honesty and vulnerability. Self-abasing in her subjective experience of love, she expresses disbelief in its unrealistic ideals. However, pessimism steps aside as the joy and wonder of discovering love anew takes center stage. These philosophical musings are crafted with skill, sensitivity, and a mature passion. Like bitter and sweet chocolate, you will savor this collection to the last word.
