Anna Casamento Arrigo, a true artist, captures the nuances of her life through brush strokes wielding vivid, literary imagery in the poetry collection, ‘Anima’.
I savored each poetic composite which plucked at my heartstrings. Stirred memories from ‘Weeds beneath the Open Meadows’ abound: “Through Papa’s Eyes,” “Reminders,” and “The Little Girl Survivor”.
She expounds on the solace and comfort of romantic love; lashes out at bigotry and war; champions resilience and independence in the aftermath of lost innocence and betrayal.
Each profound poem within this poetic self-portrait is painted with sophisticated eloquence and candor. I highly recommend adding ‘Anima’ to your reading list.
