Produktbeschreibung

"Your poem has got real feeling in it!"
- Kevin Halford

"Het hamert er wel in, moet ik je zeggen!"
- Frank Beunk
(He found it very impactful.)

The Wall is a long poem caused by lots and lots of non-stop noise. I can barely look at it without starting to feel the incredible noise stress again to which I was exposed for several years.

It eventually inspired me to pour it all into these words, but not until after something happened that unlocked the door to my creativity. That door had been slammed shut when I was still a young child, its key turned and carelessly thrown away.

Autorenporträt

Angelina Souren is a highly versatile researcher and critical thinker who used to work in tourism and hospitality in Amsterdam, quit her job in her mid-twenties and turned herself into an earth and life scientist. She's emigrated three times so far, initially to the Unites States, and has carried out fieldwork in several EU countries. These days, she mostly focuses on inclusivity and diversity, including aspects like workplace bullying and neuroscience. Bioethics sensu lato: "All living beings are entitled to respect and should be treated not as means but as ends in themselves." (Fritz Jahr's bioethical imperative).

She is based in Portsmouth in England, has previously lived in Florida and spent a large chunk of her adult life in Amsterdam. She was the eldest of three daughters whose mother passed away after a long illness (vastly metastasised breast cancer) when the three siblings were still very young and her father had a severe borderline personality disorder, a state of being that was not yet acknowledged in those days. It's all made her into a take-charge person who has always needed to be very practical.

Angelina became self-employed in 1997. Her siblings also run their own businesses, as did their dad. Angelina has since written, translated and edited professionally for clients from all over the word, for example for publishers and high-end engineering consultancies like Arcadis. She's published several books, both fiction and non-fiction.

She started writing stories in primary school, was on her school's first newspaper team and already managed to get a letter published in a national magazine when she was still a teenager. It was about a play by G.B. Shaw.

She is a former board member of the Environmental Chemistry (and Toxicology) Section of the Royal Netherlands Chemical Society as well as former editor-in-chief of its newsletter and scientific yearbook, a former member of the board and of various committees of a Dutch foundation for women in science and technology called NIMF, and was an associate editor for the international newsletter of the US-based Geochemical Society for over a decade.

Angelina became the target of a phenomenon known as sadistic stalking (also called resentful stalking). It's included a great deal of hacking. This is what got her to read up on neurodiversity and personality disorders and dive into bioethics. Otherisation - the opposite of inclusivity - and communication...
