What to Expect: Book Reviews and Reflections

Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

I plan on writing up some reviews/reflections on a few of the following books this month. I have yet to choose which ones from this list of what I am currently reading.

Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen

The Feminine Mystique by Betty Friedan

Democracy, Culture and the Voice of Poetry by Robert Pinsky

Three Guineas by Virginia Woolf

Satanic Feminism: Lucifer as the Liberator of Woman in Nineteenth-Century Culture by Per Faxneld

I am really leaning towards a reflection of Wuthering Heights for sure and a review of Democracy, Culture and the Voice of Poetry.

Free Hand #91 (Forgetting to the Beat of War Drums)

Alina H. Hansen Writer & Poet

My poems have been all over the place recently, this is no exception. 

 

A rhythm pulsating and cold, let us return to the hell of

war drums in our minds. The line that traces and seeks

me out, to write itself upon me. Memories that are

torn up and discarded or burned. I cannot retrieve them.

 

Thank you for reading my writing! I hope you will return in the future!
