Book Review.......Les Pensees

Les Pensees

Three words..........Delicate - Beautiful - Moving

Personally I like by poetry with a bit more of a bite,  You know, one that punches you in your face while screaming look at me!  But this was never going to be like that.  You can tell that from the cover.

That being said... This book is beautiful.  I loved the fact that it had the original french next to the english translation on a separate page.  As most of the poems flowed much better in the original transcript.

This book is beautiful, Its soft but at the same time there is something in the background that moves you.  Each one is personal and deep.  Almost dream like.  It like looking into somebodys diary.  You feel like you should been raeding these poems because they are so personal, yet she pulls you in.

Shes won me over and its the perfect book for the autumn rainy afternoons.

Book Review........The Antigone Poems

This book is right up my street.  The words express so much and the art work though terrifying is also endearing.  You can't take your eyes off them.  This book is chilling but at the same time calming.  Its relatable though your not sure why.  I loved it.

The poems are powerful, and you get a real sense of horror and terror and some left you feeling quite bleak then, POW!  There a beautiful yet undertone of sad picture and it brings you back.  You sense the Greek tragedy throughout this book.

I was in awe of the skill involved in some of these verses.  I loved in exile.  It was short and yet the range in my feeling when I read that poem.  Just read it and you will know what I mean.

The book itself it set out perfectly.  If you are new to poetry then please give this book a go, cause its not overwhelming and yet still special.

Read it in the dark if your dare.
