Explanation To Books Revel
I am a long-time fan of @indemaio on Twitter, so I was excited to see what he would be able to do in book form. What I found was a compelling mix of pithy, funny poems and short moving poems, like I knew from his Twitter feed, and longer expositive pieces that were real, raw, and visceral. The theme of love runs through the book, with occasional detours into pain and loss. The kind of love Indemaio is writing about is something that I've felt, but which I suspect many readers will find foreign. There is truth in this writing that requires faith on the part of the reader, particularly the young reader who has not yet had the opportunity to feel the kind of all-consuming love being explored. While you can probably read the entire book in just an hour, you will find that it takes days or weeks, because even the short poems invite study. Reading and re-reading. I hope it will be okay with the author if I quote just one short poem in this review, because it uniquely captures the kind of thought found throughout the volume:I'll Never Be the Same Since you left I sleep on your side of the bed. feeling like it's me who has disappeared.Think about that. First, there's the simple reality of it. Sleeping on the side of the bed where your lover is supposed to be. I've done that. You've done that. But now visualize it, and look at your side of the bed, and there is the absence. So it is you that is missing. And isn't that so true? That when you are in love and have lost yourself in another person, that person's absence takes away part, maybe all, of who you have become. Brilliant, poignant, and true. In a nutshell, that's what this anthology is—brilliant, poignant, and true.
