The Strings

With The Strings as the lead poem, poetess Agarwal introduces us to nearly a hundred of her selections, each complemented by an old or very new quote--some penned by the author herself. The zigzag pattern of the format marries the zigzag journey of topics, to which Agarwal takes her readers: verse to free verse, poignant to humorous, dark insights to light-- about drugs, war, family relationships, love, online activities and even the place of hats in our time. Agarwal's ability to reveal the microcosms in our macrocosm of current events brings an arresting awareness and some unsettling truths to readers of this third collection. This volume is a must for all mesmerized by Agarwal's last two volumes, Whatever Happened To Onetime? and What If? ... or for anyone looking for a precious gift to mark a special occasion or event. (This volume is also available on Kindle.) Agarwal continues to emerge as a rising American master of literary devices in the twenty-first century, joining in time the ranks of Dickinson, e.e.cummings, Angelou, and Frost. "She knows all the rules and she knows how and when to break them."
