Tell Me Another Story: Poems of You and Me

Tell me another story is a collection of poetry that spans a variety of human experiences. From the death of a cherished loved one to dating, human relationships, and more, this collection has a little something for everyone. Emmy Marucci really shines in the poems that delve into the pain of losing her beloved grandfather. She taps into the universal feelings of loss and grief to deliver very poignant and heartbreaking poems. To set off some of the poems, she includes photographs of the subjects of her poems. Reading her raw feelings about people in her family and then turning the page to see their photo was a powerful touch bridging the gap between poetry, imagination, and reality.

Not only were the poems very moving and accessible, but the quality of the book was also very high. Thick, glossy, pages enhanced the reading experience. This is an excellent selection for even casual poetry lovers, or readers who are strapped for time.
