The Guilt Gene / Review

Author: Dianna M. Raab
Paperback: 92 pages
Publisher: Plain View Press (September 21, 2009)
Language: English
ISBN-10: 1935514393


Book Description:
The Guilt Gene is a collection of sixty poems depicting the author's view of her inner and out life.

My Review:
This is easy-to-read poetry. It is unpretentious and honest; a self-portrait that will resonate with most women. I'm not an expert on writing poetry, but I do know that I enjoyed Ms. Rabb's book. I especially related to her poem, Where I Write.
(Thank you to the author for my review copy.)

Oh my gosh ... I love the title! I don't know that I'd actually get the book, but it sure engenders some pondering. I could write a sizeable essay on how guilt gets passed on, but I'd never considered it being a DNA thing.

Love your insights!
