There were many poems that I could relate to and others pertaining to moments in South African history. Lost in a Quatrain includes several deep pieces such as Not Enough, Broken Winged Bird, Are YOU Ready? As the Rain Pitter-Pattered, Wrapped Up, just to name a few. There are many and I enjoyed them all. - NADA ADEL SOBHI - Poet and former Editor-in-Chief of The Muse, Cairo University</p><p>5 STARS: When you truly reflect on life, you come up with such creations. I like the way Adiela (Akoo) has weaved simple poetic stories out of the complex strings of life in which humans remain entangled. From social to soul exploration, all has been done and depicted neatly in this poetic beauty. As a poet, I especially relate to the poetry style that is made very understandable, yet churned out of an oceans depth. - RUCHIKA PAHWA - Poet/Author</p>...(*_*)9781393915508_<p><strong>Lost in a Quatrain is a relatable, inspiring, thought provoking memoir on a journey to becoming, a journey of hope and healing.
