Aptly titled, ‘Woman Strong,’ author/poet Anna Casamento Arrigo’s poetry collection taps into the strength and resilience of women as survivors. Her words resonate in each heartfelt poem whose themes run the gamut of: innocence lost, betrayal in love, coming to terms with death, empowerment, and lush erotica.

Anna’s poetic brushstrokes are bold and vibrant:

“Freedom Knows My Name” – Reaching toward the limitless sky/Dare to dream

“Woman Warrior” – Stronger those who/Have taken chances/Made mistakes/Wisdom their trophy

Especially endearing to me, the trilogy, “Just Ice” which attempts to make sense out of knowing and accepting.

The photos interspersed throughout the collection reinforce the concept of “woman strong”.

I highly recommend this emotionally-charged collection.
