Self-Portrait

Beschreibung

Emanuel di Pasquale's Self-portrait offers a collection of small but powerful poems that present a world where the poet, the poem and thus the reader wrestle with the human connection with nature-our forming mother. These poems explore inner passions and how such passions help us understand the nature of nature, the nature of things, and ultimately the nature of ourselves.
