Latest Review: The Golden Manuscripts: A Novel by Evy Journey

Post by Maroy Gloria Ailly »

This is a new genre of book compared to those I've ever come across, nevertheless, I'm open minded to the idea of art so I might as well appreciate the art in this book. I'm not sure though if I was looking for a book to read, if I'd pick one of the sort though. Thank you for the review.

As the name suggests this book is about making art by arranging words in different patterns and shapes. Congratulations BOTD!

Latest Review: Between Good and Hollywood by Tyler Patrick Wood

Post by Kirsi Cultrera »

Unfortunately, poetry is really not for me. I do find it fascinating that this book makes an attempt to combine words and forms, and even calligraphy. However, I never learned to understand poetry. In addition, the intimate lives of couples do not interest me the least bit. Reading a book about the topic would feel like eavesdropping. This book is definitely unique, but I’m afraid I have to pass this one anyway.

Thank you for the fascinating review!

The authors use of wordplay and photography mixed with literature sounds like something that is worth reading about.

This poetry book sounds extremely unique, and I love the technique called calligram, which involves arranging words to form shapes and pictures, which gives the text multiple meanings. The interesting wordplay is such a clever and creative way depict a story. Thanks for the review!
