Christine Bode is the author of two books of visceral, audacious poetry. Eden Refugee reflects the experiences of a young woman consumed by sex, drugs, rock’n’roll, unrequited love and a constant quest for spiritual enlightenment. In her latest volume, Eden Redefined, Christine bares her soul, teasing every sense by revealing her life as an existential mud wrestler. Eden Redefined intimately contemplates grief, human vampires, spiritual growth, love in its many guises, pandemic isolation, and the madness of the 21st century.

Christine is also a co-author of the anthology For the Grandchildren: A Collection of Stories, Life Lessons, and Wisdom from Around the World: Volume I published by Publish and Promote on Aug. 12, 2024.

The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe
"I rarely read the same author back-to-back, but after devouring A Sicilian Romance and The Romance of the Forest I haven't wanted a break from Ann Radcliffe. Her writing is breezy and enthralling—uncommon for 18th century literature. Perfect for the " Read more of this review »

This mammoth, prolix book--the first wildly popular gothic novel--is indifferently written, poorly planned, and inconsistent in purpose and tone. Radcliffe's style is irritating, filled with continual redundancies, superfluous commas and dialogue tha" Read more of this review »
