BOOK REVIEW

BOOK: Letters Never Mailed

AUTHOR: Susan Borgeson

PUBLISHER: Redeye Publishing International

ISBN-13: 978-1441483096

RATING: 3.5 stars



One wonders what Tom Waits actually did to the author after reading the poetry in this book.

Although it may not have been intended, some of the poems come across as witty if taken alone away from the content of the book. When taken altogether, you get a picture of a great sadness and loss that never did get handled.

It's a journey of persistence and determination with demands for love and admiration. Dreams dashed, life in turmoil but finding the strength to carry on.

I really do wish I knew exactly what Tom Waits did - was he the cause of the authors struggles? It's a mystery, but obviously one that had a great impact on Susan Borgeson's life for 32 years.
