When you first look at the title and cover of the book, it looks light-hearted and humourous. I had no idea that it covered such heavy and important topics in such an interesting way. What an intriguing book! Well done on your review and being selected for BOTD.

This collection of poetry does seem to explore some difficult and challenging topics, but that’s often where self-reflective clarity resides. Thank you for providing such an informative and thorough analysis of this one!

Unfortunately, poetry is most definitely not my preferred format. I always got lost in rhymes and rhythms, even in my native language. Thereby I will have to pass this book and usage of profanity only strengths my decision. Still congratulation on BOTD!

Shitolian ~ is a mixture of Drama and Poetry. Professionally edited, as it emphasizes the low station of the subject of a profound way of relating to both Drama and Poetry.

Well-written and is recommended to readers who are looking for modern evaluation of subjects old and new.

~ Thanks to the Author

This sounds like a nice collection of poems every one of which is very meaningful dwelling on topics like slavery, AIDS, domestic violence, and blood diamonds. And I do agree with the author that hurts and disappointments are good motivators to change ourselves. It will be interesting to read this collection. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!
