Joanne Limburg Libros

The collection of poems delves into serious themes such as envy, guilt, and bereavement, all while employing a humorous tone. Limburg captures the complex experiences of modern women, navigating roles as daughters, mothers, and friends amid external and internal struggles. The poems explore the challenges of maintaining self-identity and emotional well-being in a world fraught with issues like depression, misogyny, and societal pressures, ultimately celebrating resilience and vulnerability.

Poems of a lost self and a lost brother. Growing up with undiagnosed Asperger's, Limburg identified with Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Another of the book's main sequences was written in response to her brother's suicide.

'Paraphernalia' is a fine, capacious handbag/hold-all of a word. Practical as well as attractive, it can stretch to accommodate various kinds of contents. This work features poems that look at the ways in which our bodies and minds, too, can themselves be broken down into odds and ends, can be useful or useless clutter.

The poems in Bookside Down are written about and for 21st Century children, who are into their friends, the TV, Wiis, DS's, computers, collectibles and things that make them laugh. They deal with important matters such as difficult schoolmates, daft parents, impossible siblings, the last days of the dinosaurs and the death of planet earth. In this book you will find rhyming poems, non-rhyming poems, poems that are conversations and poems that tell stories. You could read them to yourself, read them aloud, or even use them as patterns to write your own poems.
