Unfortunately I am not a big fan of poetry. Hence, I'll have to pass on this one. Nonetheless, great job on the review.

Poetry has always been a hit or miss for me, so I usually stick to novels. However I have to admit, there are some things that only poetry can truly convey. The few topics mentioned here as well as the one quoted line have piqued my interest. Maybe I'll check this book out in full one day

Thanks for the great review, especially the sharing on which poems you liked and enjoyed. I would like to see how the author has managed to pack in some thought-provoking ideas into the poems, especially since you mentioned that most poems were actually quite short.

I am glad that the poems cover almost every existential idea imaginable. The fact that they are short, yet lengthy in their meanings, is enthralling. I look forward to reading them. Thanks for the review.

Poems are a way of expressing different values and beliefs in a short version. Amazing review.

I think I agree that it is difficult to rate a poetic book. But I admire the author's talent.

from the review, i can tell that short poems, long tales is the perfect change of pace for anyone who’s been reading fiction and non fiction for a long time. it feels like the perfect book to read that’s give you a break from the rollercoaster of emotions you might get from other books.

I love how the poet can say a lot of things in just a few words. My favorite poems were "No invitation" and "Not Schindler's list". His poems deal with everyday human emotions that most people often choose to ignore and they are written in a way that forces the reader to think.

[Beatus]

I believe that any written material has the author's perspective. The reader will probably be able to get it or have a completely different take. This isn't bad, however, it reflects the difference in individual thinking structure. Poems may be difficult to understand but when you do understand they can completely change you. Great book.

[Peace Odii]

I also feel there's something for everyone too in Osmani's texts. The way the author poured his emotions in these peoms, as stated by the reviewer, would be impressive to read.

[Sharill Rasowo]

That the poetry does not rhyme and the lengths of each line varies sounds very interesting. I like that a wide range of topics was covered. Thank you for the detailed review.

[Shireen Ubaid]

Poems with hidden deeper meaning is very interesting to read. It gives us deeper insight into the poet's emotional state and we are able to carve out interesting stories out of it. I would love to read such poems. Thanks for the nice review.
