Review:
​
4 Stars From Caitlin and Bonnie: I enjoyed much about this book. It often presents an interesting use of words and rhythm. It is delightfully simple and honest; there is no meaning lost in complexity that's derivative of Ezra Pound and others who add academic trappings to impress rather than convey ideas. Many of Amrhein's lines are full of emotion; all are devoid of intellectual exercise for its own sake.
One of the nice things about this book ironically is that not all of it resonated with me. It therefore inspired me to analyze and reflect on my own attitudes towards love. Why is my loving always without religious context or a desire to be declared publicly; is mine less spiritual or intense than Amrhein's? If only as a catalyst for increased self-awareness and analysis, the book truly is an enjoyable and recommended read.

This work of Poetry covers years of writing from age 25 to 35 and the photography includes beautiful pictures of Arnold Arboretum, sunsets at my home and on the beach and more. The poems are of great variety from "American Beauty" to "Imagination Running Wild" and are the flavor of my unique personality.
