“Patio Poetry” is a book of heartfelt expressions abound with cleverness that encompasses the essence of various life issues. While writing this book of personal poetry, the author’s main objective was to convey to her readers the importance of listening to your heart and following your dreams. She is a firm believer that through having faith, strength and determination tempered with laughter, encouragement and finally yet importantly- LOVE, anything is possible. This author’s promethean style certainly makes for interesting book material to not only read, but also really ponder about as she states her point of view regarding life matters deftly -- wrapping each expression in unique articulation. Seamlessly the content of this book balances great measures of wit and bold intellect. “Patio Poetry” is a tasteful unequivocal book displaying the author’s passion for writing as she diplomatically exhibits in accessible language- which incidentally varies from raw, humorous, spicy; intense; tragic; back to raw- showcasing indeed a genuine flare of her very own. It is apparent how one could easily venerate in the delight of her artistic abilities thus, it is a privilege to welcome and honor such talent amongst other illustrious poets of our time. LaCretia Ann Stewart describes her work as a collage of metaphoric life experiences comprised of whimsical short stories, coupled with embellished theories that’s carefully entwined with an interesting philosophy as she sees it through her eyes. In a synopsis, she refers to her work as abstracts of life captured on paper. If “Patio Poetry” dazzled you, then you can anticipate reading more of this authors work in her upcoming books.

A New York Times Notable Book Finalist for the National Book Critics Circle Award A personal, lyrical narrative about storytelling and empathy, from the author of Orwell's Roses Apricots. Her mother's disintegrating memory. An invitation to Iceland. Illness. These are Rebecca Solnit's raw materials, but The Faraway Nearby goes beyond her own life, as she spirals out into the stories she heard and read—from fairy tales to Mary Shelley's Frankenstein—that helped her navigate her difficult passge. Solnit takes us into the lives of others—an arctic cannibal, the young Che Guevara among the leprosy afflicted, a blues musician, an Icelandic artist and her labyrinth—to understand warmth and coldness, kindness and imagination, decay and transformation, making art and making self. This captivating, exquisitely written exploration of the forces that connect us and the way we tell our stories is a tour de force of association, a marvelous Russian doll of a book that is a fitting companion to Solnit's much-loved A Field Guide to Getting Lost.
