BOOK BLURB:The haiku journal follows our vampire narrator from the birth of America all the way to present time, as he writes sporadically through the centuries. The playful main character has a long biography that winds through numerous wars, a certain tea party in Boston, living the high life during the Great Depression, corrupting Emily Dickinson. The poems intertwine three main elements: being a vampire, living during the entire history of America, and forever longing to find and be with the woman who turned him into a vampire many years ago as he crossed the Atlantic Ocean on the Mayflower.
REVIEW:
After the Zombie Haiku book of last year we get to see the pained “soul” of the Vampire in this years offering. Its amusing and written as if hundreds of years apart covering the “turning” or rebirth of the character through to their own blood letting and life throughout the years. It’s amusing, it’s easy to pick up and read a few pages and makes this something of a poetic bathroom book that will have many visitors flicking through and perhaps taking a bit longer than intended as its quite an interesting offering.
If you’re stuck for something special for that Goth or Fangbanger in your life then this is the ideal gift either for their special night or for Christmas Day, however make sure that you don’t take it into the light of day, its unhealthy for many of the brethren. LOL
