Poetic Reflections: The Queen Of Hats (Volume 2)

A collection of very unusual verse, ranging from wacky to dark to narrative. Lori R. Lopez writes her own way, whether poetry or prose. This book contains both in an odd yet artful balance.Volume Two of the POETIC REFLECTIONS book series, THE QUEEN OF HATS is packed with craziness as well as eerie and thoughtful pieces. Chapters are framed by thirteen eccentric or brooding columns, followed by a rich array of additional content for each theme. Lori's writing style is wildly original and evocative, providing much to think about in this sequel to KEEP THE HEART OF A CHILD. The print edition includes black-and-white illustrations done by the author.THE QUEEN OF HATS received HONORABLE MENTION in Poetry from the 2015 Royal Dragonfly Book Awards and an HONORABLE MENTION from the 2014 Halloween Book Festival.QUOTE: "Should you find yourself packing a suitcase to be stranded on a deserted island, I suggest you think twice before including this book . . . It's very strange. And you might require your sanity. Then again, what book is brimming with as much about nothing? Not to mention funny-bone-tickling fancy, twists and turns of phrase, the purest whimsy, verse so dark you'll have to read it by flashlight under the covers, and ideas so ponderous you will not be able to get them out of your head like one of those annoying broken-record songs! This is a book you are likely to read many times, from time to time, in good times or bad, even at the best and worst of times. It will haunt you until the end of time . . ." ~ Lori R. Lopez, POETIC REFLECTIONS: THE QUEEN OF HATS
