Groupings of poems discuss fairy tale princesses and Greek goddesses in this context (which was somewhat uncomfortable, since it was apparent that Gill used mostly popular understanding of these figures, not the original fairy tales or myths). Gill speaks of friendships and relationships fallen apart, of learning to love oneself and forgive oneself and others for actions carried out as a result of pain. Rebellion, fire, and beauty are all motifs contained within Gill’s extensive collection, but most of the freeverse and prose poems contained within focus on a more nebulous theme - abuse and recovery. ![]() The descriptions on Amazon and so on do not clarify well enough the theme of this collection of poetry. Wild Embers by Nikita Gill was the hardest book of my assignment so far to get my hands on (I had to make a purchase request from my library). ![]() 5/13/2023 0 Comments Read the risk elle kennedy![]() ![]() ![]() So when Seth decides permanent is what he wants, Miranda must steel her defenses before she does something incredibly foolish…like fall in love.

A classic that can be read on many levels, it's played strictly for laughs by Julian Rhind-Tutt. ![]() She makes a Faustian pact with the devil for true love's sake so that the Master can write his precious books without fear of arrest. But maybe I'd be, too, if I had the magic ointment that makes one look 10 years younger. Bulgakov's include Pontius Pilate, a talking cat who puts on black-rimmed spectacles to read official documents quite often upside down, the devil at whose annual grand ball Stravinsky conducts the band, a poet imprisoned in a psychiatric asylum not unconnected with the Master of the title, and his ever-faithful lover Margarita. His cast of characters, real and imaginary, make Dickens's dramatis personae appear sparse.
