Book Overview

by Charlie Robert (Author)

In this unexpected and highly-tailored-in-theme collection of poetry, Charlie Robert takes the notion of what an elegy can be and turns it on its ear. Homing in on over forty varied legends across history and "specialization," Robert finds humor and, yes, even joy in the concept of death.

Of course, not everyone gets that slant. Some deaths, after all, are impossible to spin into a "celebration of life" (take, for example, Topsy the Elephant). Even so, what Robert achieves here with his debut is nothing short of a defiant coup (words Marie Antoinette is never fond of hearing) against Death, as he dances around it with words and wit that dare the reader not to crack a smile. And, yes, there are even a few unlikely subjects that Robert manages to "eulogize" as well (here's looking at you, Pluto-the erstwhile planet, not the cartoon dog).
