Written to make you smile, dream, cry, and shudder by the magic of love.

Travel in Time, A Life Story in Poems is for you, as a reader, an experience of a new world; a world where fantasy and reality have created distinct imageries and memorable moments. It is the story of a young girl and her profound and painful love, the story of her loneliness, of her travels across the world. The magic of her discoveries is captivating. It is the voice of justice and injustice that she will encounter in the beginning of her travels; it is the harshness of life where she will grow and mature. There are distinct and profound moments in the process of growing, such as the challenges of immigration, the consolation she will find in nature or by wandering with her mind across the universe. Until one day, when she will understand that life could be everything: an adventure, a dream, an illusion or endless love. Although her story is apart, the search for an unreachable love is popular and resonates with the destiny of many women around the world.

There is also the spirit of various cultures that flickers through the verses. The vivid imageries of Transylvania, the almost audible song of a lonely shepherd or the howling wolves in the moonlight may shutter and delight the reader’s spirit. Or, there might be the imageries from native Australia that may stir and reinvigorate your emotions. The combination of diverse cultures, of real events wrapped into a poetical form, may contribute, among other aspects, to the distinct spirit of the story.

Feasibly, during the journey you might also giggle or shudder by seeing the ghost of your own love story.
