Official Review: Shitolian by O Persaud

[Raquel Sojo]

Thanks for sharing the book from your perspective, it's good to have an external point of view when it comes to poetry with a social focus, this is useful to know if it will really interest us, as well as the language we will find. You detailed very well what we can expect from each part of the book.

From a sampling, this seems like an interesting collection of poems covering topics of "undesirable" issues such as AIDS, race discrimination, conflict diamonds and slavery. It might be worth a second look. Well done.

I love poetry and the author seems to approach a lot of different themes with a unique style. The theme of identify interested me, congrats on BOTD to the author! Thanks for the review!

Poetry is an excellent means of barring the soul. The poet has done that in this book, and the title speaks volumes. Your lovely review was insightful. I love poetry, and I know I will enjoy this book.

Well, I still can't make up my mind about reading this book even after reading the review. While I love poetry books, the nature of most poems looks a little depressing. But ultimately, I'm just thinking, poetry is poetry. So I'll probably check it out.

The #BOTD title is quite interesting. I like how there are four sections with basic themes. In a time where identity seems to be up in the air for a lot of people, this poetry is appropriately timed. Great review!

Between the poems on religion, racial aspects, and insects/animals, there seems to be a little bit of something for everyone.

[Anjali Kumari Singh]

It appears that the author has covered a huge array of expects through his poems. Definitely a must read.

[Sirajuddin A]

All the poems narrated in this book convey some meaningful message relevant to the global citizens, and the style of narration seems enjoyable.

Poetries are difficult to understand yet unique and engaging. And, this book sounds a delightful read. Thanks for the amazing review.

This sounds delightful. Poetry often is a succinct yet profound way to convey a message. Pulling a strong emotion out of a reader is a good sign of effective writing, especially in poetry. Thanks for an excellent review.

[Miraphery]

The poems sound interesting. There are various themes for each section and the review did justice to the book. I'm already enticed, good job!

[Bratati Pramanik]

[ReviewerDiksha]

I love reading poetry and Shitolian offers a diverse collection of them. Talking about everything from God to identity, it looks like a brilliant read.

Poetry is a beautiful piece of literature that can convey an assortment of feelings in a shortened format. I appreciate this review because I'm attracted to these types of topics and discussions that are in this book. Congrats on being BOTD!
