Subterranean Blue Poetry (client confirmé) –
Such Sweet Sorrow by Merle Amodeo presents poetic flashes of the profound creating an original take on confessional poetic narrative. Peppered with a quiet humour and telling insights on the human condition, Amodeo centers her poetry around people, a dialogue featuring a lost love, potential lovers, and in the third chapter Donald Trump and Stephen Harper, her mother, and friends amongst others. Such Sweet Sorrow is a truly unique poetic offering steeped in city landscape and the history of change.
