Reviews
beautiful but sad collection of poems
TT Tran
Poems are well written with beautiful imagery but tone of despair. The reader expressed the poems well. Very good reader.
I was hunting
Aruna Reddy
I was hunting for something like this... or it was haunting me all across until this... anyways now, no parting from it.
Avid listener
very depressing and read with a voice to match
