Tickles the imagination..., May 15, 2006
This review is from: Unscrambled Eggs (Paperback)
Nadia Brown presents a collection of poems that is a rich tapestry of words. 'Unscrambled Eggs", is intimate and compelling coming across sometimes as a confession, then again, reflective. Brown's poems often speak to her readers in imperatives, giving the reader quite a lot to ponder.
Ms. Brown has a way with a metaphor, creating an interesting expression of imagery that tickles one's imagination.
I think you will enjoy this book, and like me, you will be revisiting it often. I highly recommend it.

This review is from: Unscrambled Eggs (Paperback)
Nadia Brown has written a very thought provoking book of poetry, one that will truly challenge the mind and its ability to comprehend a much deeper venue of thoughts. These thoughts are what Nadia brings to her readers through her book, Unscrambled eggs. Nadia Brown resides with her family in Miami, Florida.
Through Nadia Browns poetry, she reveals her true spiritual insights. She shares experiences of her past and portrays them through exceptional writing skills. Her writing style is unique and refreshing.
Unscrambles Eggs is a definite must to read for anyone that desires a challenge of the mind. One of my personnel favorites is the poem titled, "Perfect". I myself am somewhat of a perfectionist, and felt as if Nadia was describing me through her writings. I do not doubt that most of her readers have experienced a similar feeling when reading Unscrambled Eggs.
Thank you Nadia brown for introducing my mind to your unique words of life!

5 years in prose...., May 3, 2009
This review is from: Unscrambled Eggs (Paperback)
Nadia Brown has given us 5 years of her life in prose - the disappointments, joys, expectations and concerns that have made up that time. The poems that she offers are quite different from other commercially available collections of prose out there, ranging from short little bites of life, like "Pebble", to others more like short essays - such as the particularly affecting "Before I Knew Better". However what they all have in common is a touching thread of sadness woven throughout.
If you enjoy modern poetry this is a lovely and heartfelt collection. It's the sort of book that you can leave lying around and pick up and dip into when you feel so inclined. It would make a lovely gift for a friend who is having a time of some reflection - many of the poems will have resonance for someone who is undergoing some life change.
All in all quite an acomplished collection, well worth your time.
