Through bold and innovative language, a strong female narrative explores the world and provides a voice for those who have been silenced in this empowering and inspirational collection of poetry. Examining a wide range of topics—love, spirituality, nature, and family—the poems give particular focus to politics, discussing how the actions of the government affect individuals on a daily basis. Filled with natural imagery and speckled with traces of the author’s Russian, Swedish, and American heritage, this fresh compilation dares to take risks and ultimately offers hope and inspiration to people from all walks of life.

Review of "Crazy Love" by Pamela Uschuk,
This review is from: Crazy Love: New Poems (Paperback)
This book was a delight to read aloud and hear the metaphors roaring, yet, there was also the fine mist spray that hovered and rose -- so light, it inhabited the realm of the spirit. Thank heavens, for this poetry -- metaphor and figurative language live! I know that there are many kinds of valid styles and approaches to poetry, but I'd sure hate to see most of it reduced to a more "direct, narrative style" so much in vogue, it seems, today. Rich metaphor and figurative language seem to be in the "you did a bad" category for some publications! Pamela Uschuk, keep on "metaphoring!"
