- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Hello, my name is Annelyse, I have chrystalized myself in the liberal arts and now emerge, grotesque insect, able to do nothing but talk about everything.— from "Ars Poetica"I learned about Annelyse Gelman's work by attending a Writer's with Drinks reading at which she performed. Although she seemed to not be entirely comfortable with being on stage, she read well and her series of quirky, intelligent poems that had me immediately wanting to buy the book.After purchasing Everyone I Love is a Stranger to Someone (and getting it signed by the poet), I quickly read through it and then went back to reread many of the poems over again, revisiting and re-experiencing them because I loved them, I really did. But when it came time time for me to sit down and write a review all I could think to say was, These poems are awesome, without really being able to find the words to explain how or why these poems. So, I spent the last two months, planning to write a review and thinking about the review and going back to read a poem here or there and falling in love all over again without being actually able to write a proper review.We wanted to show you anything is possible. Forgive us. We were so in love. In past lives, we were mothers, and you mourned
when we promised you would outlive us.— from "Hurricane"These poems are witty, clever, fun with an undercurrent of vulnerability and introspection. They explore the chaotic realm of everyday life, poking fun at its imperfections and drawing out its underbelly. I don't really know what else to say, so I'll just end with, These poems are awesome and you should go read them.The future has an obscenely happy ending: one day there you are then suddenly BANG!— from "An Illustrated Guide to the Apocalypse"
