Reseña del libro "Falling Outside Eden (en Inglés)"
If, as it has been said, every poem is a love poem to something, then each of the poems in Falling Outside Eden explores a different facet of love itself. From the intangible anticipation of beginnings to resolutions tempered by time, this collection follows the footsteps of a love affair through elation, betrayal, and forgiveness.Structured in four sections, each comprised of five poems with an introductory quatrain, the pamphlet as a whole evokes the outline of a relationship filled with love and loss, inviting readers to inhabit the spaces in between.

Each poem sings off the page in its own right, but together they form a pleasing and coherent whole with a strong, consistent voice.” - Sue Burge, author of Lumière and In the Kingdom of Shadows
