    Beneath the Surface (wonderful title, by the way)

    Review from Saleem Abdal-Khaaliq
    Author of Mind Sand

    Luciana,

    Let me start by saying I thoroughly enjoyed this work. It leaves a lasting impression. The answer to whether I’d want to know more about the person who wrote it is an unequivocal yes. This collection offers a vulnerable peek into your hidden self, perhaps even your forbidden self. It reveals an inner spectrum, a kind of metaphysical exoskeleton, your undoing laid bare beneath the unknown.

    “Ignliv with YdsLexya” completely pulled me in, reminiscent of A Beautiful Mind, where you’re drawn into the illness without realizing it. It echoes the essence of Reflection Perfection, the way perfection both drives and dismantles us.

    This intimate, deeply personal bio-narrative makes you both writer and reader in a way that never feels stylized or condescending. It opens a door wide enough to enter the whole of a life. There is a bioluminescence to the autobiographical rendering of these poems, a glow that draws you into their dark, joyful, tragic essence. On one level, the collection reads like a mini MFA syllabus. I could absolutely see it used to teach narrative prose and poetry, or to spark deeply personal conversations.

    I hesitated at first when I saw the length, wondering about reading such a long poetry book, but I quickly realized the journey was essential. I’m glad I stayed with it. The forward motion, despite setbacks and staggering obstacles, is nothing short of life-affirming.

    It made me reflect on my own life. In that way, it felt like reading the work of a friend, or someone I would want to call a friend. The imagery invited my own memories to resurface, especially in Memories of an Inner Child and Who Are We. As I read, I could hear Jennifer Thomas’s piano solo “Oceans” playing in my mind.

    The guided reflections are a brilliant and rare addition. They expand the interpretive space, allowing the reader to go deeper without demanding any fixed conclusion. They gently answer the dreaded, deadening question, “But what did you mean?” These sections educate while they elevate. I hope you keep them.

    The nonlinear lattice of memory and legacy invites you to continue reading. The visuals are strong, intimate, and open-ended, just detailed enough to make you want to reach through the page and speak to the writer.

    What amazed me most is how you carry your journey, not bruised, bitter, or broken, but supported and strengthened by it. It has truly been a joy and a pleasure to spend time with this work. I’m glad I volunteered to read it.

    Bravo. A great addition to literature. This collection should do very well.

    I remain,
    One,

  2. Clarissa Mahony –

    Luciana is such a powerful writer and vulnerable poet. You can feel her heart in every word. She’s been through so much, including cancer, and the way she turns her experiences into something so beautiful and healing is incredible. Not only that but she gives back to her community. Her writing stays with you—it’s honest, moving, and full of strength!!!

  3. ESA –

    This book proves that the quiet things beneath the surface are the ones that shape us most. Love it!

      Thank you for your kind review!!!

  4. Terri –

    What a powerful and inspirational story you shared in this collection of poems. I felt like I not only learned so much about you, but also about myself. The reader reflection after each poem really lets us look into ourselves as well. A book to be read over and over!

    • Luciana Fisher –

      Thank you so much for your heartfelt review and support, Terri. I am glad the book resonated with you.
