Anand’s latest collection of ‘Angelic’ writings reveals her more tender side, and shows the broad range of her emotional ability. Dedicated to the muses of Emily Dickinson and e.e. cummings, these poems include fond romantic moments as well as reflections on life beyond life. She shows her comfortable command of the English language with the poem, “being,” and she gets downright metaphysically divine with “Spirit” and “Night Sparrow” imparting much meaning with very few phrases. She delves directly into life’s significance with “How Long a Shadow,” “pure gold,” and “Stardust Sonnet.”
This book is beautifully illustrated by both anand and a talented illustrator from Croatia, Bernarda Saldo. Additional hand-drawn artwork is included by a global collection of artists from the United States, Bosnia and Herzegovina, India, Romania, the Ukraine and Poland. Many of these lyrical and inspiring images are truly worthy of framing.
From the author,”Written attempts to document my life when I am in a better mood. This is my favorite collection of poetry, as it expresses our ultimate nature of goodness or god-li-ness.”
