In \u201cEmbodiment,\u201d a sibling yearns to breathe life in the ghost of her sister. \u201cWhy the Dead Visit\u201d conveys an intense and morbid fascination for death. While elements of many poems firmly date them in the mythic past (\u201cAeole and Odysseus on the Line,\u201d \u201cPoe and His Women\u201d and \u201cUriel\u201d among others), the transgressive angels, hungry vampires, and defiant witches have been replaced by their more modern counterparts in others (\u201cPresentism Core\u201d and \u201cUnquiet House\u201d). The collection showcases LoSchiavo\u2019s versatility as a poet as her supernatural entities go from anguished to bizarre to subdued in an instant. A fresh spin on Edgar Allan Poe\u2019s work.<\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\"><strong>Note: This title is free on Kindle Unlimited.<\/strong><\/span><\/span><br \/>\n<span lang=\"EN-US\"><\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">A Route Obscure and Lonely <\/span><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">By LindaAnn LoSchiavo<\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/product\/1942007299\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Buy now<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Wapshott Press<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Pub date December 30, 2019<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">ISBN 9781942007296<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n<h4><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span style=\"color:#000000;font-family:Calibri;\">Price $7.50 (USD) Paperback, $6.95 Kindle edition<\/span><\/span><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A dynamic collection\u2026 In her latest collection of 33 poems, the title of which she has borrowed from a line from Edgar Allan Poe\u2019s Dream-land, LoSchiavo proves she is clearly at the top of her form as she blends fantastic with mundane, breaking lines between the fairy-tale and the factual.
