Beskrivelse
Ever randomly picked from a box of chocolates and been surprised by your selection? That sentiment haunts every poem in this book-you never know what's coming next!
This treasure hunt of a book will challenge you to find the beauty in even the darkest chocolate moments and will bring a smile to your lips and hope to your day. The everyday events take on an incredible tilt through the eyes of the author.
There are one hundred and twenty-three stories in free verse from family folklore, children's banter, alumni get-together updates, memories of childhood, controversies in the workplace, mythologies, movies, fiction, history lessons, songs on the radio, dreams, musings, meditations. Together, they describe an archetypal journey. Light and dark play are a recurring theme-but there's always an underlying ribbon of hope threading every line.
Reader comments include -
"Where did you get that style? It's elegant, it's modern, it's classic, it's musical, it's not?""Sonali is the cult heroine of magical realism. Her poems about the elephant in the room are the best.""More Than Meets the Eye" should be taught in colleges everywhere.""I challenge you to read and reread this book on different days with different mindsets and see how they evoke different, yet familiar emotions with every pass."
