  • Hello bookish people. Thanks for checking around again. Today's review is centered on Michael W. Thomas's poetry collection titled, A Time for Such a Word
    Book Link: www.amazon.com...
    Link to my written review: peterokonkwoli...
    Synopsis:
    ‘A time for such a word’ is taken from Macbeth, which might suggest an attempt to doom this collection from the start but read on to find that there is also much light and hopefulness. Visiting different points of time and space-now a desert island at dusk, now a log-store with an out-of-season moth, now Grenada, now a suburban house as it unbuilds itself-Thomas’s speakers reflect, speculate, even reanimate what seems valueless, a lost cause, a scene of no account. The collection’s final line is ‘You’re alright, you, you’re alright.’ Now quietly, now emphatically, A time for such a word insists that the world might just be so.

    Interesting comparison with that of Shakespeare's. That sounds great

    I love your method with this particular review. The side that captures your entire bookshelf is my favorite

      Thank you Kevin. Do you intend to say "Peter" or "Michael"? Haha. I guessed you made a mistake

    Thanks for another poetry recommendation, Peter. A Time for Such a Word sounds intriguing to me; to know it's written in the conventional style too, is another added advantage. I just added it to my TBR. The cover design looks good too.

    "It speaks of the pain of a bedridden man, of a sick man as he survives life owing to his breath"
