A review of a wonderful book all you writers must bread!
DId you Triond writers know we have a VERY accomplished writer among us? He is the one and only Ageeinc who wrote a Kindle E-Book called Tales of a Troubled Mind by Robert Ageeinc.
I didn’t know what to expect after I bought this book. I knew I enjoyed Ageeinc writing, but I did not know how dark it would be. It is just perfect. It has the perfect amount of good poetry with some darkness mixed with it, but not so dark that your kids couldn’t read it. I would recommend all writers buy it and give it to their children as it is a good example of what a poetry book should be like. I am VERY happy I read it.
Most poetry books I have read have a few poems I really like, some alright, ones that I don’t hate, nor do I find it spectacular. But THIS book isn’t like that. I loved EVERY poem! I kept thinking as I was going through this book, maybe the next one won’t be so good.But I can honestly say I loved them ALL!
It starts out with a poem telling us that we better be prepared for dark poetry. I was ready and I wasn’t disappointed!
Each poem in this book is a different chapter number, with the exception of the introductory poem. In the first chapter, The Fish Story, This is a poem about Ageeinc going fishing. I felt like I was there fishing with him. And the flow of the words is one of the Ageeinc does best.
I really enjoyed Chapter 5 called Independence Day. It shows that he knows the true meaning of independence Day. Independence Day is known for some people as a day of sales all afternoon, better go shopping and then going to a BBQ with fireworks after that to top off the evening. But Ageeinc shows he knows that if it wasn’t for our great military men past, present and future we would possibly not have those sales as we might have been a poor country that has rationing for everybody. There would be no chance to go to the store, we might not even have stores. Just lines people stand in hoping to get a loaf of bread,. This is one of the best poems I ever read about Independence Day. Also he gives a nice tribute to those military men and women and how we should be so thankful to them.
In Chapter 7 School Shooting tells about one of the shameful parts of our society. It shows Ageeinc is in touch with the co ntemporary world. He is not one who only knows about poetry. It shows that he knows about curent events and doesn’t like it like most of the country doesn’t.
The poem Mother’s Day in Chapter 9 is a beautiful tribute to the writers mother. She seems like a wonderful woman and they are lucky to have each other.
This is a book I thoroughly enjoyed EVERY poem and think it should be mandatory reading in high school or higher. Even though I would give it to a younger kid, but sometimes it takes time for a younger person to appreciate poetry and since everybody should appreciate poetry, I would definitely give this to a High School English class or any higher level of education.
You won’t be sorry that you read this!
