Of Love, Life, Identity and Other Coordinates: A Collection of Poems

By Lemay Quesada

Of love, life, identity and other coordinates is a collection of poems inspired by the authors own life experiences. Each poem explores different dimensions of life as a lyrical journey; a journey filled with tribulations, emotional upheaval and self-discovery. Falling in love, experiencing heartbreak, and searching for directions are among the key topical points presented by the author. The rhythmical lines that frame each poem are interwoven by means of metaphorical language which aims at creating reflective spaces for the readers. In essence, these spaces allow for a diverse array of interpretations based on the readers personal paths through life.
