Unique and interesting,
By
This review is from: Loyalty Management (Paperback)
Loyalty Management is a collection of poetry by Glen Downie that are unique, yet interesting. Written about a wide variety of topics, none of the poems makes use of periods or commas. The poems are exciting to read, giving an unthought-of perspective on the situation or object. Many of the poems are challenging to understand, thus it feels like an accomplishment completing Loyalty Management, making you want to reread what you have just read to thoroughly understand each poem.There are five different sections in this book, each discussing different topics of poetry, this includes: Prologue; Brick talking about brick; Baby food for thought; Let the sun never fall into the hands of the government; and A dream, a wake. My favourite section in Loyalty Management is "A dream, a wake," which included poetry that I found a greater interest in, about the creatures of your dreams, the underworld, etc. I highly recommend everyone to give Loyalty Management a try, since there are many topics of poetry discussed that everyone is bound to find a subject matter that interests them, and learn more of other topics.
