Omschrijving

"Akers', Singsong Crows and Alphabet Soup, is a deliciously served meal of mostly sweet, flavorful, and bold servings of direct rhythmic prose which lift your spirits through her imaginative wordplay. Her literary skill is affective and undeniable. The author peppers her musings, which remind readers to accept that life is not black and white, with startlingly abrupt pieces such as "Writing", which prompted my audible gasp, as it described her literary process. In other words, just when you think you might have figured out where Akers' flow will take you with the sensitive emotions expressed in pieces such as the bittersweet, "Overestimated" and gentle, "The First Appearance", she surprises you with the epic biographical piece on her childhood, "The Porch", which takes you deeper than you expected to go. Many of her poems resonated with me in a way few other poets' words have. Interspersed with beautiful photographs which add to the book's reflective atmosphere, this is a work you can enjoy anywhere all at once, or song by song, over and over again."
