Razliubit

by Renata S.C.

Razliubit is a story about the bittersweet feeling of falling out of love told through memories. This book is a collection of conversational-prose fusion poems that follow a narrative of love, loneliness and sensuality in a postmodern setting. The poems utilize poetic formal constructs to obscure and subvert factual details in each story while using evocative language and specificity to enhance the consuming effects of nostalgia. While the individual pieces each possess a voice and alternating speakers they also function as fragments of a larger story in progress.

****Check out my full review of this collection at http://iturnthepages.blogspot.com/201...****

Let me first start off by saying that this is an ADULT book.

However, there was something there. I didn't necessarily like the language choice or what half of the book is about, but there is something there. Every piece of the poems are about you getting to know a character. As a writer myself, I understand that a choice of language conveys more about a person than anything else. I liked the fact that I could see who these characters are without even having an introduction, a physical description, or being knowledgeable of their past.

I received this book through a Goodreads Giveaway Promotion.

Raw and real. Puts in printed word the feelings and thoughts that are usually trapped in our skin.

I adored the haunting stories on each page and the language and the honesty of it all. More women should read this book, especially if interested in the topic of emancipating female sexuality.
