Posted: 21 Aug 2020, 03:05
[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Letters to Dandelion" by XVE.]
"Have you ever loved someone but lacked the courage to tell them? Are you worried about not being liked by someone you love very much? Are you lovesick because your heart cannot simply resign to fate?" Letters to Dandelion by XVE is a poetic book, which is written in the form of letters that express the author's undying love for Dandelion, the woman of his dreams. In his poems, the author reveals the emotional torture that he has endured in his pursuit for love.
XVE begins by describing Dandelion's physical appearance. He vividly describes her physical attributes and builds a perfect image of her. The author then progresses on to write about his fantasies with Dandelion. He even divulges the sexual lusts that he has had for his sexy lover. As he advances, he tells us about the pain that he feels in her absence. He recounts the memories of their time together and laments how short-lived their moments were. Will he convince her to come to him? Will Dandelion listen and respond to the pleas of her lover?
There are a lot of positive attributes to note about this book, which I may not fully exhaust in this review. Any Christian that reads this book cannot fail to notice the semblance between these poems and the biblical Songs of Songs, which were written by King Solomon. Better still, the author complimented his poems with drawings that were very engaging in their outlook. Their inclusion assisted in evoking mental images of the author's imaginations. Vivid descriptions of his feelings and those of his lover's reactions created a pure form of love that I also found too irresistible to fathom.
This book would not be complete without poetic elements. XVE exercised poetic licence in this book, by deviating from some norms of poetry writing. He included prose forms in his book, which appeared in the middle of some stanzas. These paragraphs extended his explanations and enabled me to empathize with him more. The presence of end rhyme in several lines created musicality and made the stanzas easily memorable. His use of similes and metaphors also enhanced the reader's involvement in this book by making him/her (reader) to think about the comparisons. I could not help sympathizing with the author's desperate situation especially after reading most of the rhetorical questions that he asked.
There is nothing that I did not like about this book. I was only able to find one typographical mistake, which leads me to conclude that it was edited professionally. I cannot think of a better way to appreciate the author other than awarding this masterpiece a maximum rating of four out of four stars. I recommend it to lovesick readers who seek some form of catharsis in their emotional situations. Lovers of poetry will enjoy reading the insightful writing skills of this author
